tipc: make tipc_buf_append() more robust
As per comment from David Miller, we try to make the buffer reassembly
function more resilient to user errors than it is today.
- We check that the "*buf" parameter always is set, since this is
mandatory input.
- We ensure that *buf->next always is set to NULL before linking in
the buffer, instead of relying of the caller to have done this.
- We ensure that the "tail" pointer in the head buffer's control
block is initialized to NULL when the first fragment arrives.
