nbd: Limit nbdflags to 16 bits
Rather than asserting that nbdflags is within range, just give it the correct type to begin with :) nbdflags corresponds to the per-export portion of NBD Protocol "transmission flags", which is 16 bits in response to NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME and NBD_OPT_GO. Furthermore, upstream NBD has never passed the global flags to the kernel via ioctl(NBD_SET_FLAGS) (the ioctl was first introduced in NBD 2.9.22; then a latent bug in NBD 3.1 actually tried to OR the global flags with the transmission flags, with the disaster that the addition of NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES in 3.9 caused all earlier NBD 3.x clients to treat every export as read-only; NBD 3.10 and later intentionally clip things to 16 bits to pass only transmission flags). Qemu should follow suit, since the current two global flags (NBD_FLAG_FIXED_NEWSTYLE and NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES) have no impact on the kernel's behavior during transmission.
