[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t] lib/igt_kms: Fix memory corruption

In crosvm, the kernel reports 16 for count_crtcs, which exceeds
IGT_MAX_PIPES set to 8. The function igt_display_require allocates
memory for IGT_MAX_PIPES members of igt_pipe_t structures, but then
writes into it based on the count_crtcs reported by the kernel,
resulting in memory corruption.

 # malloc(): corrupted top size

 #  #15 [_start+0x21]

Limit the loop which initializes igt_pipe_t structure to
a maximum of IGT_MAX_PIPES iterations, ensuring it does not
exceed the allocated pipe count. This prevents igt_display_require
overwriting the heap and avoids memory corruption. This fix is
required for drm-ci to run igt tests on virtio-gpu.
