batman-adv: mcast: validate tracker padding before forwarding
A multicast tracker with an even number of destinations needs two
padding bytes after its destination list. batadv_mcast_forw_packet()
currently only checks that the count field and the addresses fit in
the tracker TVLV.
If an unpadded even tracker is compacted to an odd number of
destinations, batadv_mcast_forw_shrink_update_headers() includes those
missing padding bytes in the amount to remove. The subsequent memmove
can then write two bytes past the old packet tail. With no tailroom,
this corrupts skb_shared_info.
Include the required padding in the existing tracker length check.
This rejects the malformed tracker before either received or locally
generated packets can reach the compactor.
