[PATCH v2 net-next] Bluetooth: hci_conn: fix potential UAF in create_big_sync

[David Carlier]

Add hci_conn_valid() check in create_big_sync() to detect stale
connections before proceeding with BIG creation. Fix
create_big_complete() to handle the resulting -ECANCELED error
and validate the connection under hci_dev_lock() before
dereferencing, following the established pattern used by
create_le_conn_complete() and create_pa_complete().

Without this, create_big_complete() would unconditionally
dereference the stale conn pointer on error, causing a
use-after-free via hci_connect_cfm() and hci_conn_del().

v1 -> v2: fix create_big_complete() to handle -ECANCELED and
  validate conn under hci_dev_lock(), matching the pattern in
  create_le_conn_complete() and create_pa_complete().
