commit: widen the commit-buffer API to size_t

Continue the migration from `unsigned long` to `size_t`. The `size`
attribute of `struct commit_buffer` is fed either from
`odb_read_object()`'s return value (`size_t`, handled with
`cast_size_t_to_ulong()`) or from `strbuf.len` in
`fake_working_tree_commit()` (silently narrowed today). Widen the field
and a couple of function signatures together, drop the shim in
`repo_get_commit_buffer()`, and move the matching `unsigned long` locals
at the in-tree callers in commit.c (three sites), builtin/replace.c, and
builtin/stash.c (two sites). The remaining callers pass NULL or already
pass a size_t-compatible variable.
