dm cache metadata: ignore hints array being too small during resize
Commit fd2fa954 ("dm cache metadata: save in-core policy_hint_size to on-disk superblock") enabled previously written policy hints to be used after a cache is reactivated. But in doing so the cache metadata's hint array was left exposed to out of bounds access because on resize the metadata's on-disk hint array wasn't ever extended. Fix this by ignoring that there are no on-disk hints associated with the newly added cache blocks. An expanded on-disk hint array is later rewritten upon the next clean shutdown of the cache.
