spl: fit: bound the external data size before reading it

load_simple_fit() loads an image stored as external data by reading
it from the boot device with a transfer sized from the FIT data-size
property. That property is listed in exc_prop[] in image-fit-sig.c,
so it is excluded from the configuration signature and stays under
the control of anyone able to modify the boot medium even when
CONFIG_SPL_FIT_SIGNATURE is enabled. The read happens before
fit_image_verify_with_data() checks the image hash, so an inflated
data-size overruns the destination before the corruption can be
detected. The device-tree overlay path is the sharpest case, because
there the destination is a fixed CONFIG_SPL_LOAD_FIT_APPLY_OVERLAY_BUF_SZ
heap buffer.

Pass the size of the destination into load_simple_fit() and reject
an image whose data does not fit before the read is issued. The
check is done in two places: an early bail on len > max_size, then a
bail on the block-aligned size > max_size. The size check is the
mathematically binding one because size is len rounded up to the
device block length. The early bail exists so that
get_aligned_image_size() never runs on a hostile len, where its int
arithmetic would invoke signed-integer overflow.

For the overlay path the bound is exact: the caller passes the size
of its temporary buffer. For the firmware, loadables, FDT and FPGA
call sites the destination is wherever the load_addr field points,
with no defined upper limit at the call site. Those callers pass
CONFIG_SYS_BOOTM_LEN as a conservative ceiling, matching the same
limit spl_parse_legacy_validate() already applies to legacy images.
It is not a tight bound on the actual capacity at the destination,
just a cap that rejects implausibly-sized data.
