While fuzzing the virtio-net tx vq, I ran into an assertion failure due
to iov_copy offsets larger than the total iov size. Though there is
a check to cover this, it does not execute when !n->has_vnet_hdr. This
change always copies the guest header into the mhdr buffer and checks its
length, even if mhdr is not needed.
The call stack for the assertion failure:

Should we merge the conditions? In this way:
if (n->has_vnet_hdr && n->needs_vnet_hdr_swap) {
