netfilter: nf_queue: do not allow packet truncation below transport header offset

Domingo Dirutigliano and Nicola Guerrera report kernel panic when
sending nf_queue verdict with 1-byte nfta_payload attribute.

The IP/IPv6 stack pulls the IP(v6) header from the packet after the
input hook.

If user truncates the packet below the header size, this skb_pull() will
result in a malformed skb (skb->len < 0).
