Fix computations for max precision in vfprintf

While the full fix requires some work allowing INT_MAX on 64-bit platforms
seems easy.

The computation of the amount of the required memory is done in size_t but the
check uses INT_MAX for some reason. Replacing it with SIZE_MAX looks like a
right thing.
