As was made noticeable by the last of the commits referenced below,
using a fixed-size type for such purposes is not only against
./CODING_STYLE, but can lead to actual issues. Switch to using size_t
instead, thus also allowing calculations to be lighter-weight in 32-bit
builds.
No functional change for 64-bit builds.
