KVM: SEV: Reject non-positive effective lengths during LAUNCH_UPDATE

Check for an invalid length during LAUNCH_UPDATE at the start of
snp_launch_update() instead of subtly relying on kvm_gmem_populate() to
detect the bad state.  Code that directly handles userspace input
absolutely should sanitize those inputs; failure to do so is asking for
bugs where KVM consumes an invalid "npages".

Keep the check in gmem, but wrap it in a WARN to flag any bad usage by
the caller.

Note, this is technically an ABI change as KVM would previously allow a
length of '0'.  But allowing a length of '0' is nonsensical and creates
pointless conundrums in KVM.  E.g. an empty range is arguably neither
private nor shared, but LAUNCH_UPDATE will fail if the starting gpa can't
be made private.  In practice, no known or well-behaved VMM passes a
length of '0'.

Note #2, the PAGE_ALIGNED(params.len) check ensures that lengths between
1 and 4095 (inclusive) are also rejected, i.e. that KVM won't end up with
npages=0 when doing "npages = params.len / PAGE_SIZE".
