attr: harden allocation against integer overflows
When parsing an attributes line, we need to allocate an array that holds
all attributes specified for the given file pattern. The calculation to
determine the number of bytes that need to be allocated was prone to an
overflow though when there was an unreasonable amount of attributes.
Harden the allocation by instead using the `st_` helper functions that
cause us to die when we hit an integer overflow.
