    RtsUtils: Use `size_t` instead of `int` where appropriate
    
    Functions like `stgMallocBytes` take a size parameter which was of type
    `int`, but is commonly used as `stgMallocBytes (sizeof (...))`. This is
    problematic because the `sizeof` operator returns `size_t` so that on 64 bit
    systems, in this common use case the `size_t` parameter would be truncated to
    32 bits when passed to `stgMallocBytes` where it was cast back to `size_t`.
