[musl] [PATCH v2] dns: check length field in tcp response message

[Alexey Kodanev <aleksei.kodanev@bell-sw.com>]

The received length field in the message may be greater than the
size of the 'answer' buffer in which the message resides. Currently,
ABUF_SIZE is 768. And if we get a larger 'alens[i]', it will result
in an out-of-bounds reading in __dns_parse().

To fix this, limit the length to the size of the received buffer.
