In attach_auth_trunc(), userspace supplies `ualg->alg_trunc_len` (in
bits) via XFRMA_ALG_AUTH_TRUNC, and attach_auth_trunc() only checks that
`ualg->alg_trunc_len <= algo->uinfo.auth.icv_fullbits`.

However, ESP and AH convert `alg_trunc_len` to bytes via `esp_authsize =
ALIGN(x->aalg->alg_trunc_len, 8) >> 3` or `ah_authsize =
x->aalg->alg_trunc_len >> 3`, and pass `authsize` to
`crypto_aead_setauthsize()` or `ah_init_state()`. If `alg_trunc_len` is
not a multiple of 8 bits (or is between 1 and 31 bits), integer division
by 8 truncates the requested bit length (for example, `alg_trunc_len ==
7` yields a 0-byte ICV in AH, or `alg_trunc_len` not divisible by 8
mismatches the ICV byte length between AH and ESP).

Reject `alg_trunc_len` values that are not a multiple of 8 bits
(`ualg->alg_trunc_len & 7`) or non-zero values smaller than 32 bits
(`ualg->alg_trunc_len > 0 && ualg->alg_trunc_len < 32`) with `-EINVAL`.
