[RFC PATCH] build: avoid %zu in translated strings

[Eric Blake <eblake@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Mingw64 lacks %zu, and has the unfortunate setup where
sizeof(long)==4 but sizeof(size_t)==8.  Since gnulib's
printf-posix module is not LGPLv2+, the best we can do
is manually cast to the only portable int type known to
hold size_t, and rely on gnulib's inttypes.h.

* src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteStreamPacket): Rewrite size_t
formatting.
* src/storage/storage_driver.c (storageWipeExtent): Likewise.
---

Here's the latter option; there are many more uses of %zu, but
only in DEBUG statements.  I suppose it would also be easy enough
to teach cfg.mk how to recognize and reject %z inside translated
strings, as part of 'make syntax-check'.
