sysctl: move the extra1/2 boundary check of u8 to sysctl_check_table_array

Move boundary checking for proc_dou8ved_minmax into module loading, thereby
reporting errors in advance. And add a kunit test case ensuring the
boundary check is done correctly.

The boundary check in proc_dou8vec_minmax done to the extra elements in
the ctl_table struct is currently performed at runtime. This allows buggy
kernel modules to be loaded normally without any errors only to fail
when used.

This is a buggy example module:
	#include <linux/kernel.h>
	#include <linux/module.h>
	#include <linux/sysctl.h>

	static struct ctl_table_header *_table_header = NULL;
	static unsigned char _data = 0;
	struct ctl_table table[] = {
		{
			.procname       = "foo",
			.data           = &_data,
			.maxlen         = sizeof(u8),
			.mode           = 0644,
			.proc_handler   = proc_dou8vec_minmax,
			.extra1         = SYSCTL_ZERO,
			.extra2         = SYSCTL_ONE_THOUSAND,
		},
	};

	static int init_demo(void) {
		_table_header = register_sysctl("kernel", table);
		if (!_table_header)
			return -ENOMEM;

		return 0;
	}

	module_init(init_demo);
	MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");

And this is the result:
        # insmod test.ko
        # cat /proc/sys/kernel/foo
        cat: /proc/sys/kernel/foo: Invalid argument
