od: -wN, N>64K, avoid misbehavior on systems with 32-bit size_t
* src/od.c (PRINT_FIELDS): Declare "i" to be of type uintmax_t, so that the numerator in the expression for "next_pad" does not overflow. (print_named_ascii): Likewise. (print_ascii): Likewise. Bug introduced via commit v6.12-42-g20c0b87. * tests/misc/od.pl: Exercise each of the three affected code paths. * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it. Reported by Rich Burridge.
