util/cutils: Fix incorrect integer->float conversion caught by clang

Clang does not like do_strtosz()'s code to guard against overflow:

    qemu/util/cutils.c:245:23: error: implicit conversion from 'unsigned long' to 'double' changes value from 18446744073709550592 to 18446744073709551616 [-Werror,-Wimplicit-int-float-conversion]

The warning will be enabled by default in clang 10. It is not
available for clang <= 9.

val * mul >= 0xfffffffffffffc00 is indeed wrong.  0xfffffffffffffc00
is not representable exactly as double.  It's half-way between the
representable values 0xfffffffffffff800 and 0x10000000000000000.
Which one we get is implementation-defined.  Bad.

We want val * mul > (the largest uint64_t exactly representable as
double).  That's 0xfffffffffffff800.  Write it as nextafter(0x1p64, 0)
with a suitable comment.
