qcow2: Check min_size in qcow2_grow_l1_table()
First, new_l1_size is an int64_t, whereas min_size is a uint64_t. Therefore, during the loop which adjusts new_l1_size until it equals or exceeds min_size, new_l1_size might overflow and become negative. The comparison in the loop condition however will take it as an unsigned value (because min_size is unsigned) and therefore recognize it as exceeding min_size. Therefore, the loop is left with a negative new_l1_size, which is not correct. This could be fixed by making new_l1_size uint64_t. On the other hand, however, by doing this, the while loop may take forever. If min_size is e.g. UINT64_MAX, it will take new_l1_size probably multiple overflows to reach the exact same value (if it reaches it at all). Then, right after the loop, new_l1_size will be recognized as being too big anyway. Both problems require a ridiculously high min_size value, which is very unlikely to occur; but both problems are also simply avoided by checking whether min_size is sane before calculating new_l1_size (which should still be checked separately, though).
