Read past the end of ff_h264_cabac_tables

Description

This code in decode_significance_8x8_x86 can read one byte past the end of the global "ff_h264_cabac_tables":

libavcodec/x86/h264_i386.h:158

#ifdef BROKEN_RELOCATIONS

"movzbl %c14(%15, %q6), %k6\n\t"

The read is aligned, so it would never cause a page fault, and the value of the extra byte does not seem to affect output bits in any way. Still, I'd appreciate if it was fixed by extending the table by one extra byte, as in the attached patch.

This was detected with AddressSanitizer.
