asn1: additional sanity checking during BER decoding
- Don't trust a length which is greater than the working buffer.
An invalid length could cause overflow when calculating buffer size
for decoding oid.
- An oid length of zero is invalid and allows for an off-by-one error when
decoding oid because the first subid actually encodes first 2 subids.
- A primitive encoding may not have an indefinite length.
Thanks to Wei Wang from McAfee for report.
