Fixes the following security issues:

CVE-2016-9577

    Frediano Ziglio of Red Hat discovered a buffer overflow
    vulnerability in the main_channel_alloc_msg_rcv_buf function. An
    authenticated attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause a
    denial of service (spice server crash), or possibly, execute
    arbitrary code.

CVE-2016-9578

    Frediano Ziglio of Red Hat discovered that spice does not properly
    validate incoming messages. An attacker able to connect to the
    spice server could send crafted messages which would cause the
    process to crash.

+Subject: [PATCH] Prevent possible DoS attempts during protocol handshake
+
+The limit for link message is specified using a 32 bit unsigned integer.
+This could cause possible DoS due to excessive memory allocations and
+some possible crashes.
+For instance a value >= 2^31 causes a spice_assert to be triggered in
+async_read_handler (reds-stream.c) due to an integer overflow at this
+line:
+
+   int n = async->end - async->now;
+
+This could be easily triggered with a program like
+
+  #!/usr/bin/env python
+
+  import socket
+  import time
+  from struct import pack
+
+  server = '127.0.0.1'
+  port = 5900
+
+  s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+  s.connect((server, port))
+  data = pack('<4sIII', 'REDQ', 2, 2, 0xaaaaaaaa)
+  s.send(data)
+
+  time.sleep(1)
+
+without requiring any authentication (the same can be done
+with TLS).

+Subject: [PATCH] Prevent integer overflows in capability checks
+
+The limits for capabilities are specified using 32 bit unsigned integers.
+This could cause possible integer overflows causing buffer overflows.
+For instance the sum of num_common_caps and num_caps can be 0 avoiding
+additional checks.
+As the link message is now capped to 4096 and the capabilities are
+contained in the link message limit the capabilities to 1024
+(capabilities are expressed in number of uint32_t items).
