smb1cli_inbuf_parse_chain fails with SMBntcreateX extended response

Has anyone tried smbtorture lately with SMB1 NT create and the
"extended response" format?   [MS-SMB] Sec. 2.2.4.9.2

    Windows-based SMB servers send 50 (0x32) words in the extended
response although * they set the WordCount field to 0x2A.

This trips up smb1cli_inbuf_parse_chain, which ends up using the
"Maximal Access Rights" field as the byte count, and then decides
the response is invalid because the message is not that long.
I've attached a sample response packet.

Here's an (admittedly hack-ish) way to deal with that.
