odb: teach read_blob_entry to use size_t
There is mixed use of size_t and unsigned long to deal with sizes in the codebase. Recall that Windows defines unsigned long as 32 bits even on 64-bit platforms, meaning that converting size_t to unsigned long narrows the range. This mostly doesn't cause a problem since Git rarely deals with files larger than 2^32 bytes. But adjunct systems such as Git LFS, which use smudge/clean filters to keep huge files out of the repository, may have huge file contents passed through some of the functions in entry.c and convert.c. On Windows, this results in a truncated file being written to the workdir. I traced this to one specific use of unsigned long in write_entry (and a similar instance in write_pc_item_to_fd for parallel checkout). That appeared to be for the call to read_blob_entry, which expects a pointer to unsigned long. By altering the signature of read_blob_entry to expect a size_t, write_entry can be switched to use size_t internally (which all of its callers and most of its callees already used). To avoid touching dozens of additional files, read_blob_entry uses a local unsigned long to call a chain of functions which aren't prepared to accept size_t.
