Subject: [PATCH] DH_check(): Do not try checking q properties if it is
 obviously invalid

If  |q| >= |p| then the q value is obviously wrong as q
is supposed to be a prime divisor of p-1.

We check if p is overly large so this added test implies that
q is not large either when performing subsequent tests using that
q value.

Otherwise if it is too large these additional checks of the q value
such as the primality test can then trigger DoS by doing overly long
computations.

Fixes CVE-2023-3817
