Fix for bug #53237: mysql_list_fields/COM_FIELD_LIST stack smashing

Problem: "COM_FIELD_LIST is an old command of the MySQL server, before there was real move to only
SQL. Seems that the data sent to COM_FIELD_LIST( mysql_list_fields() function) is not
checked for sanity. By sending long data for the table a buffer is overflown, which can
be used deliberately to include code that harms".

Fix: check incoming data length.
