Check newcap * itemsize for overflow prior to calling realloc, so that
we don't accidentally truncate an existing array. Set errno to ENOMEM
on all failure paths, rather than leaving it indeterminate on
overflow. The patch works by assuming a prerequisite that
v->cap*itemsize is always smaller than size_t.
Fixes: 985dfa72ae (common/utils/vector.c: Optimize vector append)

Unless you see problems in this, I'll push this and also port it to
nbdkit.
