When validating chain allocator dinode in 'ocfs2_validate_inode_block()',
add an extra checks whether a) the maximum amount of chain records in
'struct ocfs2_chain_list' matches the value calculated based on the
filesystem block size, and b) the next free slot index is within the
valid range.

note: this is going to replace "ocfs2: introduce chain list sanity check
      with ocfs2_check_chain_list()" because it looks more consistent and
      allows to filter out damaged/inconsistent dinodes earlier (immediately
      after being read).
