When the user requests a partition, we were using data read
from the disk as disk offsets without a bounds check. We got
lucky that even when computed offsets are out-of-bounds,
blk_pread() will gracefully catch the error later (so I don't
think a malicious image can crash or exploit qemu-nbd, and am
not treating this as a security flaw), but it's better to
flag the problem up front than to risk permanent EIO death of
the block device down the road.  The new bounds check adds
an assertion that will never fail, but rather exists to help
the compiler see that adding two positive 41-bit values
(given MBR constraints) can't overflow 64-bit off_t.

Using off_t to represent a partition length is a bit of a
misnomer; a later patch will update to saner types, but it
is left separate in case the bounds check needs to be
backported in isolation.

Also, note that the partition code blindly overwrites any
non-zero offset passed in by the user; so for now, make the
-o/-P combo an error for less confusion.  In the future, we
may let -o and -P work together (selecting a subset of a
partition); so it is okay that an explicit '-o 0' behaves
no differently from omitting -o.

This can be tested with nbdkit:
$ echo hi > file
$ nbdkit -fv --filter=truncate partitioning file truncate=64k

Pre-patch:
$ qemu-nbd -p 10810 -P 1 -f raw nbd://localhost:10809 &
$ qemu-io -f raw nbd://localhost:10810
