libgtp: Fix ggsn crash if pdp alloc array is full (PDP_MAX)

osmo-ggsn crashes when concurrent pdp context 1024 is created, due to
the gsn->pdpa array (of size PDP_MAX, 1024) being full.
The crash happens because return code of gtp_pdp_newpdp was not checked,
and hence a pointer "pdp" pointing to a temporary not-fully-allocated
object was being passed to gsn->cb_create_context_ind() callback.

Let's avoid crashing and instead reject the PDP context.
