[PATCH 03/20] packfile.c: use checked arithmetic in `nth_packed_object_offset()`

In a similar spirit as the previous commits, ensure that we use `st_add()` or `st_mult()` when computing values that may overflow the 32-bit unsigned limit.

Note that in each of these instances, we prevent 32-bit overflow already since we have explicit casts to `size_t`.

So this code is OK as-is, but let's clarify it by using the `st_xyz()` helpers to make it obvious that we are performing the relevant computations using 64 bits.
