Log Message:
lint: consistently use portable type size in integer constraints

Since tree.c 1.546 from 2023-07-03, lint no longer warned about possible
loss of accuracy when converting from 'long' to 'int' on an ILP32
platform that uses 'unsigned long' for size_t, when run in portable mode
(-p), which is enabled by default in the NetBSD build.

The integer constraints avoid false-positive warnings by looking at the
actual values an expression can take.  The function can_represent is
guarded by a condition that uses the portable_size_in_bits, but then
internally used the opposite size_in_bits, which led to inconsistent
results.

The warning looks confusing though, as on an ILP32 platform, 'int' and
'long' have the same size and representation, therefore there cannot be
an actual loss of accuracy.  The warning may need to be reworded to
explicitly mention the portability mode, in which sizeof(int) is assumed
to be 3 instead of 4, to catch possible loss of accuracy on other
platforms.
