[PATCH 10/16] count-objects: do not use xsize_t when counting object size

The point of xsize_t is to safely cast an off_t into a size_t (because we are about to mmap). But in count-objects, we are summing the sizes in an off_t. Using xsize_t means that count-objects could fail on a 32-bit system with a 4G object (not likely, as other parts of git would fail, but we should at least be correct here).

I think the on_disk_bytes is a little weird here, too. We count actual
disk-usage blocks for loose objects here, which makes sense. But we do
_not_ do so for packfiles, or for "garbage" files. Which seems kind of
inconsistent.
I kind of doubt anybody cares too much either way, though.
