[PATCH 00/10] fix two PRs and guard against bad data

This patch series addresses two specific PRs (libsframe/33417 and libsframe/34273) by introducing crucial validation checks within the libsframe library. The changes aim to prevent issues such as null pointer dereferences and buffer over-reads that could arise from malformed or crafted SFrame input data. Further fixes for sframe_decoder_get_fres_buf and related APIs are planned for subsequent patches.
