fsverity: use unsigned long for level_start

fs/verity/ isn't consistent with whether Merkle tree block indices are
'unsigned long' or 'u64'.  There's no real point to using u64 for them,
though, since (a) a Merkle tree with over ULONG_MAX blocks would only be
needed for a file larger than MAX_LFS_FILESIZE, and (b) for reads, the
status of all Merkle tree blocks has to be tracked in memory.

Therefore, let's make things a bit more efficient on 32-bit systems by
using 'unsigned long[]' for merkle_tree_params::level_start, instead of
'u64[]'.  Also, to be extra safe, explicitly check that there aren't
more than ULONG_MAX Merkle tree blocks.
