[PATCH 0/4] Fix LLP64 `(size_t)1` compatibility VS C4334 warnings

The Visual Studio MSVC compilation reports a number of C4334 "was 64-bit shift intended" size mismatch warnings. In most of these cases a size_t is ANDed (masked) with a bit shift of 1, or 1U. On LLP64 systems the unity value is 32 bits, while size_t is 64 bits.

The fix is to upcast the unity value to size_t.   

The first patch has also been reported [1] by René Scharfe as an extra patch to the rs/mergesort series. That patch had been on maint.

The middle two patches are similar changes, though [2/4] is a uintptr_t.

The final patch is applied to object-file.c, which has recently been renamed from sha1-file.c, so couldn't be applied to the earlier maint branch.[2]

These fixes clear all the current C4334 warnings.
The patches can be squashed together if required.
