dir.c: skip .gitignore, etc larger than INT_MAX

We use add_patterns() to read .gitignore, .git/info/exclude, etc, as
well as other pattern-like files like sparse-checkout. The parser for
these uses an "int" as an index, meaning that files over 2GB will
generally cause signed integer overflow and out-of-bounds access.

This is unlikely to happen in any real files, but we do read .gitignore
files from the tree. A malicious tree could cause an out-of-bounds read
and segfault (we also write NULs over newlines, so in theory it could be
an out-of-bounds write, too, but as we go char-by-char, the first thing
that happens is trying to read a negative 2GB offset).

We could fix the most obvious issue by replacing one "int" with a
"size_t". But there are tons of "int" sprinkled throughout this code for
things like pattern lengths, number of patterns, and so on. Since nobody
would actually want a 2GB .gitignore file, an easy defensive measure is
to just refuse to parse them.

The "int" in question is in add_patterns_from_buffer(), so we could
catch it there. But by putting the checks in its two callers, we can
produce more useful error messages.
