Following Jincheng's report, an out-of-band write leading to arbitrary code execution is possible because on one side the squashfs logic accepts directory names up to 65535 bytes (u16), while U-Boot fs logic accepts directory names up to 255 bytes long.
Prevent such an exploit from happening by capping directory name sizes to 255. Use a define for this purpose so that developers can link the limitation to its source and eventually kill it some day by dynamically allocating this array (if ever desired).

Hello Jincheng, can you please give this fix a try?
Thanks! Miquèl
