    Upcast size_t variables to uintmax_t when printing · ca473cef

    When printing variables which contain a size, today "unsigned long"
    is used at many places.
    In order to be able to change the type from "unsigned long" into size_t
    some day in the future, we need to have a way to print 64 bit variables
    on a system that has "unsigned long" defined to be 32 bit, like Win64.
    
    Upcast all those variables into uintmax_t before they are printed.
    This is to prepare for a bigger change, when "unsigned long"
    will be converted into size_t for variables which may be > 4Gib.
