[Spice-devel] [PATCH spice-server 1/2] Avoid integer overflow for Drawable::refs field

This fixes a regression caused by
a43c21b6bcdda701763afb6d73e38a3c419e54c7
("DCC: change how fill_bits() marshalls data by reference").
Before the mentioned patch the number of references to Drawable
structure were really few so an uint8_t was enough.
Now that every chunk of the image are accounted you can easily
get an overflow.
This fixes https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99258.
