[waffle] [PATCH 04/17] core: Change return type of wcore_attrib_list32_length

Change from int32_t to size_t, because
- Length is a measurement of unsigned "size".
- In general, length values are often used in subsequent calculation
of memory size which is passed to functions like malloc, whose
input is size_t not int.
- The cast from ptrdiff_t to int32_t in wcore_attrib_list_length
just looked wrong. A cast to size_t makes more sense.
As precedent, strlen() also returns size_t.
