patch-delta: use size_t for sizes

`patch_delta()` takes the source and delta sizes by value and writes
back the reconstructed target size through an `unsigned long *`.  That
datatype cannot represent a value that exceeds 4 GiB on systems where
`unsigned long` is 32-bit (notably 64-bit Windows builds), though, even
though the delta encoding itself, the on-disk layout, and the in-memory
buffers happily carry such sizes. A `size_t` companion to
`get_delta_hdr_size()`, `get_delta_hdr_size_sz()`, was introduced in
17fa077596 (delta, packfile: use size_t for delta header sizes,
2026-05-08) precisely so that `patch_delta()` could be widened without
changing the on-the-wire decoding helper's signature.

Widen `patch_delta()`'s three size parameters to `size_t` and switch
its internal use of `get_delta_hdr_size()` to the `_sz` variant.
Then propagate the wider type through the callers.
