diff: widen `deflate_it()`'s bound local from int to `size_t`

Fixes a pre-existing silent narrowing from `git_deflate_bound()`'s
`unsigned long` return into an `int` local: anything past 2 GiB has
always wrapped negative here and then been re-extended to `size_t`
inside `xmalloc()`. Also prep for the upcoming `git_deflate_bound()`
widening to `size_t`, which would extend the narrowing further if
`bound` stayed `int`.
