Fix remotely-triggerable ASSERT() on malformed IPv6 packet.

Correct sanity checks on IPv6 packet length in mss_fixup_ipv6(),
and change the ASSERT() check in mss_fixup_dowork() into a simple
"return" (= the TCP header will simply not be inspected further).

CVE-2017-7508 has been assigned due to the serious nature of the
bug: it can be used to remotely shutdown an openvpn server or
client, if IPv6 and --mssfix are enabled and the IPv6 networks used
inside the VPN are known.
