reftable/block: fix OOB read with bogus restart offset

Restart points encode records in a given block that do not use prefix
compression and that can thus immediately be seeked to. These offsets
are encoded in the restart table, where each offset needs to point at
one of the records of the block. We do not verify this though, so a
bogus restart offset may cause an out-of-bounds read:
