[PATCH v7 09/19] media: meson: vdec: Fix vp9 header update failure on invalid payloads

[Anand Moon]

Ensure vp9_update_header() returns an explicit error code on invalid or
malformed buffer payloads instead of silently returning zero.

When v4l2-compliance injects short, empty, or uninitialized test buffers,
the validation logic catches the out-of-bounds size anomalies, but
returning 0 tricks the calling esparser infrastructure into treating
it as a successful 0-byte header conversion. This causes the hardware
decoder engine to stall out, resulting in subsequent stream-on timeouts
and failure marks inside v4l2-test-buffers.cpp.

Fix this by returning -EINVAL across all validation and bounds check
failures to force immediate core framework buffer drops. Additionally,
tighten array pointer checks, secure the mag_ptr bounds loop, and
convert the superframe parsing indexer into an explicit if/else block
for readability.
