Add defensive assertions
Coverity complains about possible bugs involving referencing NULL return
values and division by zero. The division by zero bugs require that a
block pointer be corrupt, either from in-memory corruption, or on-disk
corruption. The NULL return value complaints are only bugs if
assumptions that we make about the state of data structures are wrong.
Some seem impossible to be wrong and thus are false positives, while
others are hard to analyze.

Rather than dismiss these as false positives by assuming we know better,
we add defensive assertions to let us know when our assumptions are
wrong.
