rx_desc_len is migrated as a raw uint8_t from the stream in both
e1000e and igb, but it is a derived value that can be computed from
the register state. A crafted migration stream can set rx_desc_len
to an invalid value, causing a stack buffer overflow in
e1000e_write_packet_to_guest() which copies rx_desc_len bytes into
a 32-byte stack union.

Recalculate rx_desc_len from the register state in post_load,
ignoring the untrusted value from the stream.

Resolves: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/3869>
v2:
   - extract e1000e_calc_rxconf() to recalculate all derived RX values
   - fix commit message to mention both RFCTL and RCTL
   - fix commit message to note that igb_rx_use_legacy_descriptor()
     is currently a stub
