ipfilter: Fix NULL dereferences in ipf_checkicmp6matchingstate()
Add NULL checks for ic6 (the ICMPv6 header pointer from fin->fin_dp)
and oic (the inner ICMPv6 header from ofin.fin_dp after ipf_makefrip).
These pointers can be NULL when processing malformed ICMPv6 error
packets with extension headers.
Also fix the length validation: the original check (fin->fin_plen <
sizeof(ip6_t)) could never trigger because an earlier check already
ensures fin->fin_plen >= ICMP6ERR_MINPKTLEN (48). Replace with a proper
check that fin->fin_dlen contains at least ICMPERR_ICMPHLEN +
sizeof(ip6_t) bytes to ensure sufficient data exists for both the
ICMPv6 error header and the embedded IPv6 header.
