nfc: llcp: fix OOB read and u8 offset wrap in TLV parsers
nfc_llcp_parse_gb_tlv() and nfc_llcp_parse_connection_tlv() contain three related bugs in their TLV parsing loops:
- 'offset' is declared u8 but tlv_array_len is u16. When TLV data
- Before reading tlv[0] (type) and tlv[1] (length) there is no
- After reading the length field, the value bytes are accessed
Both functions are reachable without authentication via nfc_llcp_set_remote_gb() which feeds remote LLCP general bytes directly into nfc_llcp_parse_gb_tlv() with no additional validation.
Fix all three issues by widening offset from u8 to u16 and adding bounds checks for both the TLV header and value field before each access.
