[PATCH 01/12] diff-delta: widen `struct delta_index`' size fields to `size_t`

["Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

Preparation for widening the delta-encoding API to `size_t` in
subsequent commits, which is what lets pack-objects drop the
`cast_size_t_to_ulong()` shims that 606c192380 (odb, packfile: use
size_t for streaming object sizes, 2026-05-08) had to leave behind in
`get_delta()` and `try_delta()` because their downstream consumers were
still narrow.

The struct is private to diff-delta.c, so widening its fields in
isolation is a no-op at runtime: the values stored continue to fit in 32
bits on Windows because the public API around it still truncates.
Splitting it out keeps the API-change commit focused on caller updates.
