ata: libata: only set sense valid flag if sense data is valid

While this shouldn't be needed if all devices that claim that they
support NCQ autosense (ata_id_has_ncq_autosense()) and/or the sense
data reporting feature (ata_id_has_sense_reporting()), actually
supported those features.

However, there might be some old ATA devices that either have these
bits set, even when they don't support those features, or they simply
return malformed data when using those features.

These devices should be quirked, but in order to try to minimize the
impact for the users of these such devices, it was suggested by Damien
Le Moal that it might be a good idea to sanity check the sense data
received from the device. If the sense data looks bogus, then the
sense data is never added to the scsi_cmnd command.

Introduce a new function, ata_scsi_sense_is_valid(), and use it in all
places where sense data is received from the device.
