[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 2/3] drivers/vhost/blk: take virtio_blk_outhdr only from the readable part

The request header was moved from the whole descriptor chain, so a
chain with no readable part, or one shorter than the header, had header
bytes read from buffers the guest marked device-writable. Those bytes
were also trimmed in place from the writable segments, shifting the
status byte and the READ/GET_ID payload taken from them.
Take the header only from the readable part. When that part is shorter
than struct virtio_blk_outhdr, drop the request and report it through
error_ctx, like the other malformed-header paths do.
