RFA: fix PR 9164

This patch fixes PR 9164.
The bug is that the result of sizeof has signed type, not unsigned.
The C and C++ standards require an unsigned type here.
This fix defers the choice of type to the language, using the existing
language-arch machinery. I fixed the C language family, including
ObjC, but I left the other languages unchanged. I think the language
maintainers will have to make a change here, if one is needed or
desired. (FWIW I don't think Java needs a change, since I don't think
it is possible to invoke sizeof when Java is the selected language.)
Built and regtested on x86-64 (compile farm).
New test case included.
Please review.
thanks,
Tom
