Closes#22009
Per MQTT 3.1.1 sections 3.13.1 and 3.14.1, PINGRESP and DISCONNECT fixed
headers must have remaining_length set to zero. The previous code
dispatched to mqtt->nextstate based on the queued state alone without
validating remaining_length for these no-payload packet types, allowing
a malicious broker to send a PINGRESP with non-zero remaining_length
whose trailing bytes would be interpreted as the payload of whatever
message type was queued (CONNACK, SUBACK, etc.).
The exploitation path turned out to be narrow — curl sends data to the
server the user chose to talk to — but the spec violation and the
resulting protocol-state error are real. Reject the malformed packets
with CURLE_WEIRD_SERVER_REPLY before state dispatch.
