act_ife: Fix false encoding
On ife encode side, the action stores the different tlvs inside the ife header, where each tlv length field should refer to the length of the whole tlv (without additional padding) and not just the data length. On ife decode side, the action iterates over the tlvs in the ife header and parses them one by one, where in each iteration the current pointer is advanced according to the tlv size. Before, the encoding encoded only the data length inside the tlv, which led to false parsing of ife the header. In addition, due to the fact that the loop counter was unsigned, it could lead to infinite parsing loop. This fix changes the loop counter to be signed and fixes the encoding to take into account the tlv type and size.
