[sr-dev] [kamailio/kamailio] ims_auth: fixed rare core dump, due to null ptr check (#1213)

The ims_auth module reads the value from the Content-Length header
of a REGISTER request, before decoding the message body.
Due to a missing null pointer check, reading this value leads
to core dump in case the Content-Length header is missing.
