ntfs: validate non-resident attribute offsets

ntfs_attr_update_meta() shifts the attribute name when converting between
non-sparse and sparse attributes. Converting to sparse also adds the
compressed_size field before the name and mapping pairs, requiring eight
additional bytes in the attribute record.

However, the validator does not check that name_offset is within safe
boundaries for these operations or that the additional space is available.
A malicious MFT record could set name_offset such that:

1. The name is positioned at the very end of a non-sparse attribute.
   Converting to sparse would shift the name forward by 8 bytes,
   writing beyond the attribute boundary.

2. The name overlaps with the mapping pairs, causing corruption during
   conversion.

Add validation to ensure:
- For named attributes, name_offset is within valid bounds
- Name does not extend beyond the attribute or overlap with mapping pairs
- For non-sparse, non-compressed attributes, eight bytes are available
  after mapping_pairs_offset for the compressed_size field

The space check also covers unnamed attributes, for which name_offset = 0
is valid and no name range needs to be checked.
