block: Fix pad_request's request restriction
bdrv_pad_request() relies on requests' lengths not to exceed SIZE_MAX, which bdrv_check_qiov_request() does not guarantee. bdrv_check_request32() however will guarantee this, and both of bdrv_pad_request()'s callers (bdrv_co_preadv_part() and bdrv_co_pwritev_part()) already run it before calling bdrv_pad_request(). Therefore, bdrv_pad_request() can safely call bdrv_check_request32() without expecting error, too. In effect, this patch will not change guest-visible behavior. It is a clean-up to tighten a condition to match what is guaranteed by our callers, and which exists purely to show clearly why the subsequent assertion (`assert(*bytes <= SIZE_MAX)`) is always true. Note there is a difference between the interfaces of bdrv_check_qiov_request() and bdrv_check_request32(): The former takes an errp, the latter does not, so we can no longer just pass &error_abort. Instead, we need to check the returned value. While we do expect success (because the callers have already run this function), an assert(ret == 0) is not much simpler than just to return an error if it occurs, so let us handle errors by returning them up the stack now.
