stdlib: fix potential UB and integer overflow with huge allocations using malloc-simple allocator
Two things are fixed by this commit: 1/ It is wrong to allocate an object of size > PTRDIFF_MAX. It is explained in this thread: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63303 2/ There was a possible integer overflow in both malloc() and memalign() implementations of stdlib/malloc-simple. The malloc() integer overflow issue is fixed by the side effect of fixing the PTRDIFF_MAX issue. The memalign() one is fixed by adding a comparison. Signed-off-by: Yann Sionneau <yann@sionneau.net>
