wifi: cfg80211: require zero terminator in valid_regdb country table

Browse source

valid_regdb() walks the regulatory.db country table and returns
true as soon as either:
- a zero coll_ptr entry (the required terminator) is found, or
- the next country entry would no longer fit in the buffer.

The second case silently accepts a database image whose country
table reaches the end of the buffer without a zero-terminator.
The callers of valid_regdb() assume that every country is zero
terminated.

Exit immediately upon zero terminator, don't accept a database
without a zero terminator.
