SUNRPC: Add an XDR decoding helper for struct opaque_auth
RFC 5531 defines the body of an RPC Call message like this:
struct call_body {
unsigned int rpcvers;
unsigned int prog;
unsigned int vers;
unsigned int proc;
opaque_auth cred;
opaque_auth verf;
/* procedure-specific parameters start here */
};
In the current server code, decoding a struct opaque_auth type is
open-coded in several places, and is thus difficult to harden
everywhere.
Introduce a helper for decoding an opaque_auth within the context
of a xdr_stream. This helper can be shared with all authentication
flavor implemenations, even on the client-side.
Done as part of hardening the server-side RPC header decoding paths.
