Fix infinite loops in secure memory allocation.
Issue 1: sh.bittable_size is a size_t but i is and int, which can result in freelist == -1 if sh.bittable_size exceeds an int. This seems to result in an OPENSSL_assert due to invalid allocation size, so maybe that is "ok." Worse, if sh.bittable_size is exactly 1<<31, then this becomes an infinite loop (because 1<<31 is a negative int, so it can be shifted right forever and sticks at -1). Issue 2: CRYPTO_secure_malloc_init() sets secure_mem_initialized=1 even when sh_init() returns 0. If sh_init() fails, we end up with secure_mem_initialized=1 but sh.minsize=0. If you then call secure_malloc(), which then calls, sh_malloc(), this then enters an infite loop since 0 << anything will never be larger than size. Issue 3: That same sh_malloc loop will loop forever for a size greater than size_t/2 because i will proceed (assuming sh.minsize=16): i=16, 32, 64, ..., size_t/8, size_t/4, size_t/2, 0, 0, 0, 0, .... This sequence will never be larger than "size".
