erofs: fix buffer copy overflow of ztailpacking feature

I got some KASAN report as below:

[ 46.959738] ==================================================================

[ 46.960430] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in z_erofs_shifted_transform+0x2bd/0x370

The root cause is that the tail pcluster won't be a complete filesystem

block anymore. So if ztailpacking is used, the second part of an

uncompressed tail pcluster may not be ``rq->pageofs_out``.
