[kbd] [PATCH] Validate psfu headers to avoid integer overflows.

The psfu parser does not properly validate parsed values:
* unsigned int values are casted to signed int values when
parameters are supplied, therefore they must be checked against
INT_MAX (local size_t variables are used)
* fontwidth must not be larger than INT_MAX - 7, otherwise later
alignment codes would overflow, e.g. (fontwidth + 7) / 8
* "ftoffset + fontlen * charsize" is prone to overflow, make sure
that it does not; later on it will be checked against file size
* when parsing multiple files, make sure that the sum of all
fonts won't overflow

I've sent this mail in August 2015 already. Based on the upcoming
release, it might be a good idea to re-evaluate it.
Attached are two files which will crash the current code:
$ setfont setfont-fpe.psfu # font width too large
Floating point exception
$ psfxtable -i psfxtable-segfault.psfu # on 32 bit archs
Segmentation fault
Maybe there are more ways to trigger overflows, which makes it a
good target for fuzzing.
