midx repack: avoid integer overflow on 32 bit systems

On a 32 bit system "git multi-pack-index --repack --batch-size=120M" failed with fatal: size_t overflow: 6038786 * 1289 The calculation to estimated size of the objects in the pack referenced by the multi-pack-index uses st_mult() to multiply the pack size by the number of referenced objects before dividing by the total number of objects in the pack. As size_t is 32 bits on 32 bit systems this calculation easily overflows. Fix this by using 64bit arithmetic instead. Also fix a potential overflow when caluculating the total size of the objects referenced by the multipack index with a batch size larger than SIZE_MAX / 2. In that case total_size += estimated_size can overflow as both total_size and estimated_size can be greater that SIZE_MAX / 2. This is addressed by using saturating arithmetic for the addition. Although estimated_size is of type uint64_t by the time we reach this sum it is bounded by the batch size which is of type size_t and so casting estimated_size to size_t does not truncate the value.
