pg_combinebackup: Reject out-of-range block numbers in incremental files

The header of an incremental file was only partially validated:
num_blocks and truncation_block_length were checked against
RELSEG_SIZE, but the block numbers stored after them were not checked
at all.  A block number of 0xFFFFFFFF made
find_reconstructed_block_length() compute a reconstructed length of
zero, since it adds 1 to the block number in 32-bit arithmetic, and
reconstruct_from_incremental_file() then allocated zero-length
sourcemap and offsetmap arrays but still indexed them with the block
numbers taken from the file.  In an assertions-enabled build, this
would be caught by an Assert, but otherwise it would index the arrays
out of bounds, typically crashing the process.

To fix, check the block numbers when the header is read, like the
other header fields.
