msg: XwdLoader: Fix buffer over-read and improve general robustness

This commit fixes a buffer over-read that could occur due to g_ntohl()
evaluating its argument more than once if at least one of the following
is true:

* Build target is not x86.
* __OPTIMIZE__ is not set during compilation (e.g. -O0 was used).

It also improves robustness more generally and fixes an issue where the
wrong field was being used to calculate the color map size, causing some
image files that were otherwise fine to be rejected.
