liveupdate: Reference count incoming FLB data
Increment the incoming FLB refcount in liveupdate_flb_get_incoming() so
that the FLB structure cannot be freed while the caller is actively using
it. Add an additional liveupdate_flb_put_incoming() function so the
caller can explicitly indicate when it is done using the FLB data.
During a Live Update, a subsystem might need to hold onto the incoming
File-Lifecycle-Bound (FLB) data for an extended period, such as during
device enumeration. Incrementing the reference count guarantees that the
data remains valid and accessible until the subsystem releases it,
preventing future use-after-free bugs.
