Non-regression test for a bug introduced with TLS handshake defragmentation
support in Mbed TLS 3.6.3, whereby the confusion between the `badmac_seen`
meaning and the `in_hsfraglen` meaning of `ssl->badmac_seen_or_in_hsfraglen`
causes renegotiation to be processed incorrectly after receiving a message
with a bad MAC.
The bug doesn't affect Mbed TLS 4.0.0 and above, but it's still good to have
more testing.

Let test code customize the kitchen sink function
`mbedtls_test_ssl_perform_handshake()` at a few points.

Since Mbed TLS 4.0, this is just the low-level error code. But keep the
combination for uniformity with the rest of the file, and to reduce the
differences with the 3.6 branch.

Announce the security fix together with the overflow fix, since the two bugs
are pretty much indistinguishable from a black-box perspective, despite
being due to independent problems in the code.

In an X.509 certificate, a basicConstraints extension where the cA
field (BOOLEAN) is omitted but the pathLenConstraint field (INTEGER )is
present is syntactically valid, but RFC 5280 states that CAs MUST NOT emit
such a certificate.
Historically, since XySSL 0.9 in 2008, if a basicConstraints extension
started with an INTEGER field, we interpreted that field as a cA value. This
was a deliberate change:
> Fixed x509_get_ext() to accept some rare certificates (like
> www.openssl.org:443) which have an INTEGER instead of a BOOLEAN for
> Extension::BasicConstraints::cA.
However, 18 years later, this does not seem to be relevant, and the details
seem to have been lost. Furthermore, major implementations follow RFC 5280
and interpret `SEQUENCE { INTEGER n }` with cA being set to its default
value (FALSE) and pathLenConstraint set to `n`. This means that such a
certificate with n != 0 would be interpreted as a CA certificate in Mbed TLS
but as a leaf certificate elsewhere, which is dangerous.
Since CAs are not supposed to emit such certificates, stop accepting them
altogether.

In test cases for pathLenConstraint parsing in a basicConstraints extension
of an X.509 certificate, use the standard type for the leading cA field,
namely BOOLEAN. The test data was encoding that field as INTEGER, which was
accepted as a deviation from the standard since XySSL 0.9.

It is now unreachable because:
- end_set == end_attr_data is enforced at library/x509_csr.c:236.
- end_exts == end_set is enforced at library/x509_csr.c:248.
- x509_csr_parse_extensions() only returns success if *p == end_exts, enforced
at library/x509_csr.c:188.
So after a successful x509_csr_parse_extensions() call, *p == end_exts ==
end_set == end_attr_data. The condition at line 257 cannot be true.

Don't allow parts of a compound (SEQUENCE or SET) to go beyond the
containing compound.
The inline CSR regression test is derived from the existing "X509 CSR
ASN.1 (OK)" DER test vector. In the extensionRequest attribute, the original
well-formed fragment is:
a029 3027 06092a864886f70d01090e 311a 3018 ...
where 31 1a is the SET containing the Extensions sequence and 30 18 is the
contained Extensions sequence. The malformed test changes only the SET
length byte, from 1a to 19:
a029 3027 06092a864886f70d01090e 3119 3018 ...
The attribute SEQUENCE length and the inner Extensions sequence length are
left unchanged. This makes the SET one byte too short for its containing
attribute, so the parser must reject it with
MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_LENGTH_MISMATCH instead of parsing the trailing byte as
data outside the SET.
There is no known security impact, just some risk reduction.
