[PATCH v2 1/6] KEYS: Expand key->{datalen,quotalen} to unsigned int

In key_alloc() and key_payload_reserve(), key->quotalen and key->datalen
can receive values larger than USHRT_MAX.
Change their types from unsigned short to unsigned int so that they can
carry the full payload and avoid truncation.
