The latter only accepts a `gint` as the number of elements in the array,
which means that its use in `GArray` (and related array implementations)
truncates at least half the potential array size.
So, introduce a replacement for it which uses `size_t` for the number of
elements. This is inline with what `qsort()` (or `qsort_r()`) actually
does. Unfortunately we can’t directly use `qsort_r()` because it’s not
guaranteed to be a stable sort.
This fixes some `-Wsign-conversion` warnings (when building GLib with
that enabled).
