x86: Fix insn decoder for longer instruction

Fix x86 insn decoder for hardening against invalid length
instructions. This adds length checkings for each byte-read
site and if it exceeds MAX_INSN_SIZE, returns immediately.
This can happen when decoding user-space binary.

Caller can check whether it happened by checking insn.*.got
member is set or not.
