http_negotiate: Fix int* vs. size_t* type mismatch

Browse Source 
http_negotiate_parse_data passed &token->length as the int *outlen
parameter of base64_decode_bin, which stores an int at that location.
However, gss_buffer_desc::length is size_t in all implementations that
I checked: MIT Kerberos Version 5 Release 1.10, libgssglue 0.4, and
GNU GSS 1.0.2.  This mismatch could cause the build to fail:

.../src/protocol/http/http_negotiate.c: In function ‘http_negotiate_parse_data’:
.../src/protocol/http/http_negotiate.c:173:2: error: passing argument 3 of ‘base64_decode_bin’ from incompatible pointer type [-Werror]
In file included from .../src/protocol/http/http_negotiate.c:30:0:
.../src/util/base64.h:8:16: note: expected ‘int *’ but argument is of type ‘size_t *’

On 64-bit big-endian hosts, it might also cause the GSSAPI
implementation to read too much data from memory and disclose it to
some network server, or crash ELinks.
