Fix overflow check in openvpn_decrypt()

Fix overflow check in openvpn_decrypt()

Sebastian Krahmer from the SuSE security team reported that the buffer
overflow check in openvpn_decrypt() was too strict according to the
cipher update function contract:

"The amount of data written depends on the block alignment of the
encrypted data: as a result the amount of data written may be anything
from zero bytes to (inl + cipher_block_size - 1) so outl should contain
sufficient room."

This stems from the way CBC mode works, which caches input and 'flushes'
it block-wise to the output buffer.  We do allocate enough space for this
extra block in the output buffer for CBC mode, but not for CFB/OFB modes.

This patch:
 * updates the overflow check to also verify that the extra block required
   according to the function contract is available.
 * uses buf_inc_len() to double-check for overflows during en/decryption.
 * also reserves the extra block for non-CBC cipher modes.

In practice, I could not find a way in which this would fail. The plaintext
is never longer than the ciphertext, and the implementations of CBC/OFB/CBC
for AES and BF in both OpenSSL and PolarSSL/mbed TLS do not use the buffer
beyond the plaintext length when decrypting.  However, some funky OpenSSL
engine I did not check *might* use the buffer space required by the
function contract.  So we should still make sure we have enough room
anyway.

v2 - always ASSERT() on buf_inc_len().  It is a double-check so should
     really not fail, but if it fails there has been a buffer overflow.
     At that point the best thing we can do is assert out. (The primary
     check *is* handled gracefully, and just drops the packet.)
