libmsc/db.c: properly get / set TP-UD length (octets vs septets)

According to 3GPP TS 03.40, section 9.2.3.16, the TP-UDL field
indicates the length of TP-UD (User-Data, including TP-UDH)
either in septets, or in octets, depending on DSC in use.

When retrieving the TP-UD from the database, we get the length
in octets (bytes), regardless of the DCS value. Before this
patch, it was merely copied to struct 'gsm_sms', without
any conversion from octets to septets.

The same problem was in db_sms_store(), which could run into
a buffer overflow, using the amount of septets (e.g. 160) to
store some 8-bit or UCS-2 encoded data (up to 140 octets).
