gfs2: Check for the end of metadata in punch_hole
When punching a hole or truncating an inode down to a given size, also
check if the truncate point / start of the hole is within the range we
have metadata for.  Otherwise, we can end up freeing blocks that
shouldn't be freed, corrupting the inode, or crashing the machine when
trying to punch a hole into the void.

When growing an inode via truncate, we set the new size but we don't
allocate additional levels of indirect blocks and grow the inode height.
When shrinking that inode again, the new size may still point beyond the
end of the inode's metadata.

Fixes xfstest generic/476.
