net/sched: cake: reject overhead values that underflow length

CAKE accepts signed overhead values and stores them in an s16, but the
adjusted packet length calculation uses unsigned arithmetic.  A negative
effective length can therefore wrap to a large value.

Such configurations make rate accounting depend on integer wraparound
rather than on the packet size userspace intended to model.  A static
netlink lower bound is not enough because packets reaching CAKE can be
smaller than any reasonable manual-overhead allowance.

Fold the signed overhead adjustment into the existing datapath MPU clamp
so negative adjusted lengths are clamped before link-layer framing
adjustments.
