nbd/server: Add helper functions for parsing option payload

Rather than making every callsite perform length sanity checks
and error reporting, add the helper functions nbd_opt_read()
and nbd_opt_drop() that use the length stored in the client
struct; also add an assertion that optlen is 0 before any
option (ie. any previous option was fully handled), complementing
the assertion added in an earlier patch that optlen is 0 after
all negotiation completes.

Note that the call in nbd_negotiate_handle_export_name() does
not use the new helper (in part because the server cannot
reply to NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME - it either succeeds or the
connection drops).

Based on patches by Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy.
