tipc: Fix minor bugs in link session number handling

This patch introduces a new, out-of-range value to indicate that
a link endpoint does not have an existing session established
with its peer, eliminating the risk that the previously used
"invalid session number" value (i.e. zero) might eventually be
assigned as a valid session number and cause incorrect link
behavior.

The patch also introduces explicit bit masking when assigning a
new link session number to ensure it does not exceed 16 bits.
