Check for integer overflow in cache size computation in strcoll

strcoll is implemented using a cache for indices and weights of
collation sequences in the strings so that subsequent passes do not
have to search through collation data again.  For very large string
inputs, the cache size computation could overflow.  In such a case,
use the fallback function that does not cache indices and weights of
collation sequences.

Fixes CVE-2012-4412.

 * CVE-2012-4424 The strcoll implementation uses malloc to cache indices and
   rules for large collation sequences to optimize multiple passes and falls
   back to alloca if malloc fails, resulting in a possible stack overflow.
