jasper: invalid memory read in jas_matrix_asl (jas_seq.c)

Description:
jasper is an open-source initiative to provide a free software-based reference implementation of the codec specified in the JPEG-2000 Part-1 standard.

Another round of fuzzing shows that a crafted image causes an invalid memory read.

The complete ASan output:
