lib: zstd: Refactor intentional wrap-around test
In an effort to separate intentional arithmetic wrap-around from unexpected wrap-around, we need to refactor places that depend on this kind of math. One of the most common code patterns of this is: VAR + value < VAR Notably, this is considered "undefined behavior" for signed and pointer types, which the kernel works around by using the -fno-strict-overflow option in the build[1] (which used to just be -fwrapv). Regardless, we want to get the kernel source to the position where we can meaningfully instrument arithmetic wrap-around conditions and catch them when they are unexpected, regardless of whether they are signed[2], unsigned[3], or pointer[4] types. Switch to a more regular type for a 64-bit value and refactor the open-coded wrap-around addition test to use subtraction from the type max (since add_would_overflow() may not be defined in early boot code). This paves the way to enabling the wrap-around sanitizers in the future.
