xen/netfront: don't trust the backend response data blindly

Today netfront will trust the backend to send only sane response data.
In order to avoid privilege escalations or crashes in case of malicious
backends verify the data to be within expected limits. Especially make
sure that the response always references an outstanding request.

Note that only the tx queue needs special id handling, as for the rx
queue the id is equal to the index in the ring page.

Introduce a new indicator for the device whether it is broken and let
the device stop working when it is set. Set this indicator in case the
backend sets any weird data.
