delta-apply: fix sign extension
We compute offsets by executing `off |= (*delta++ << 24)` for
multiple constants, where `off` is of type `size_t` and `delta`
is of type `unsigned char`. The usual arithmetic conversions (see
ISO C89 ยง3.2.1.5 "Usual arithmetic conversions") kick in here,
causing us to promote both operands to `int` and then extending
the result to an `unsigned long` when OR'ing it with `off`.
The integer promotion to `int` may result in wrong size
calculations for big values.
Fix the issue by making the constants `unsigned long`, causing both
operands to be promoted to `unsigned long`.
