Fair enough... I just saw Dave's patches go by, and I guess we
independently fixed the cursor size thing at right around the same time.
How about the following, without the fprintf but with paranoid checks
(since a malicious guest could send a bad DEFINE_CURSOR and do who knows
what with the buffer overrun, which is even worse than spamming logs ;)

Patch

====

QEMU crashes with vmware_vga when running a Linux guest with the latest
X.org vmware video driver if QEMU is using SDL for video output.  In
this case, vmware_vga advertises cursor acceleration to the guest, and
the crash comes when the guest does a DEFINE_CURSOR command with a 64x64
32bpp cursor.  This request overruns the image[] array in struct
vmsvga_cursor_definition_s and QEMU ends up segfaulting because of
memory corruption caused by writing past the end of the array.

Fix this by enlarging the image[] array to be able to hold 4096 32-bit
pixels so we don't fail for the case of 64*64*32bpp, and also add error
checking to avoid a crash if an even bigger request is sent by a guest.
