nbd/client: Correctly handle bad server REP_META_CONTEXT
It's never a good idea to blindly read for size bytes as returned by the server without first validating that the size is within bounds; a malicious or buggy server could cause us to hang or get out of sync from reading further messages. It may be smarter to try and teach the client to cope with unexpected context ids by silently ignoring them instead of hanging up on the server, but for now, if the server doesn't reply with exactly the one context we expect, it's easier to just give up - however, if we give up for any reason other than an I/O failure, we might as well try to politely tell the server we are quitting rather than continuing. Fix some typos in the process.
