Tao Yu da1ea35fea drm/gud: validate TV mode names before creating enum property
The GUD protocol returns TV mode names as fixed-size
GUD_CONNECTOR_TV_MODE_NAME_LEN entries and requires each name to be
NUL-terminated.

gud_connector_add_tv_mode() currently passes each fixed-size entry
directly to drm_mode_create_tv_properties_legacy(), which eventually
reaches drm_property_add_enum() and strlen(). If a device returns an
entry without a terminating NUL byte, strlen() reads past the end of
the slot and can run beyond the allocated buffer, triggering an
out-of-bounds read.

Validate that each returned TV mode name contains a NUL terminator
within its fixed-size slot before passing it to the DRM property code.
If a malformed entry is found, reject the device response with -EIO.

This fixes the out-of-bounds read without changing the handling of
valid devices, and avoids silently truncating malformed protocol data.
