In handle_interrupt() we use level as an index into the interrupt_vector[]
array. This is safe because we have checked it against env->config->nlevel,
but Coverity can't see that (and it is only true because each CPU config
sets its XCHAL_NUM_INTLEVELS to something less than MAX_NLEVELS), so it
complains about a possible array overrun (CID 1507131)

Add an assert() which will make Coverity happy and catch the unlikely
case of a mis-set XCHAL_NUM_INTLEVELS in future.

NB: only tested with 'make check-avocado'. You could argue that we
should mark the coverity issue as false-positive instead if you like.

Thanks. I'll take it via target-arm since I'm doing a pullreq
anyway, unless you'd prefer otherwise.
