nametransform: harden name decryption against invalid input
This fixes a few issues I have found reviewing the code: 1) Limit the amount of data ReadLongName() will read. Previously, you could send gocryptfs into out-of-memory by symlinking gocryptfs.diriv to /dev/zero. 2) Handle the empty input case in unPad16() by returning an error. Previously, it would panic with an out-of-bounds array read. It is unclear to me if this could actually be triggered. 3) Reject empty names after base64-decoding in DecryptName(). An empty name crashes emeCipher.Decrypt(). It is unclear to me if B64.DecodeString() can actually return a non-error empty result, but let's guard against it anyway.
