ecpg: Fix out-of-bound writes due to processing of invalid bytea data
ECPG assumes that any bytea data it receives from a backend starts with
'\x' as its first two bytes, but a check was missed to enforce that. A
rogue server sending some garbage bytea data would be able to crash a
client, resulting in a client-side DoS, in the most common cases.
