Potential fix for https://github.com/bniladridas/hybrid-compute/security/code-scanning/3238

To fix this safely, ensure multiplication is performed in size_t by casting before multiplication.
Best minimal change: in include/stb_image.h, at the memset call around lines 7568–7569, change the third argument from g->w * g->h to (size_t) g->w * (size_t) g->h.

This preserves behavior for valid inputs while removing integer-overflow-in-int risk in the expression itself. No new methods/imports/dependencies are required.

Combines all 15 automated code scanning alert fixes for multiplication
result converted to larger type. These changes span
`include/stb_image.h`, `include/stb_image_write.h`, and
`src/preprocess.c` with consistent application of `size_t` casts to
prevent integer overflow before conversion to larger types. Overflow
checks are added where allocation sizes are stored back into `int`
variables such as `out_size`.
