Improve robustness of DER recoding code

Add some defensive programming on top of #5634.

This copies the respective OpenSSL code in ECDSA_verify in
OpenSSL pre-1.0.1k (e.g. https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/OpenSSL_1_0_1j/crypto/ecdsa/ecs_vrf.c#L89)
more closely.

As reported by @SergioDemianLerner.
