libxc: builder: limit maximum size of kernel/ramdisk.
Allowing user supplied kernels of arbitrary sizes, especially during
decompression, can swallow up dom0 memory leading to either virtual
address space exhaustion in the builder process or allocation
failures/OOM killing of both toolstack and unrelated processes.
We disable these checks when building in a stub domain for pvgrub
since this uses the guest's own memory and is isolated.
Decompression of gzip compressed kernels and ramdisks has been safe
since 14954:
58205257517d (Xen 3.1.0 onwards).
This is XSA-25 / CVE-2012-4544.
Also make explicit checks for buffer overflows in various
decompression routines. These were already ruled out due to other
properties of the code but check them as a belt-and-braces measure.
