Bug#35616: memory overrun on 64-bit linux on setting large values for keybuffer-size
We could allocate chunks larger than 4GB, but did our size-accounting in 32-bit values. This could lead to spurious warnings, inaccurate accounting, and, in theory, data loss. Affected: 64-bit platforms. Debug-build (with safemalloc). At least one buffer larger than 4GB. For potential data loss, a re-alloc on such a buffer would be necessary. mysys/my_static.c: Make memory-accounting 64-bit safe. mysys/my_static.h: Make memory-accounting 64-bit safe. Move in struct for better alignment when 64-bit.
