linux-user: Handle brk() attempts with very large sizes
In do_brk(), we were inadvertently truncating the size of a requested brk() from the guest by putting it into an 'int' variable. This meant that we would incorrectly report success back to the guest rather than a failed allocation, typically resulting in the guest then segfaulting. Use abi_ulong instead. This fixes a crash in the '31370.cc' test in the gcc libstdc++ test suite (the test case starts by trying to allocate a very large size and reduces the size until the allocation succeeds).
