  pinctrl: Fix DNS packet parsing

Due to the use of a uint8_t to index inside the DNS payload we could end
up in an infinite loop when specific (invalid) DNS packets were
processed by ovn-controller. In the infinite loop we keep increasing the
query_name dynamic string until running out of memory.

One way to replicate the issue is to configure DNS on the logical switch
and then inject a manually crafted DNS-like packet. For example, with
Scapy:

>>> p = IP(dst='10.0.0.2',src='10.0.0.3')/UDP(dport=53)/('a'*364)
>>> send(p)

Also add a sanity check on minimum L4 size of packets.

Cherry-picked from ovn commit - 7fbdeaade826da299c20c05050627ebea65fe8c2.
