9p: use unsigned integers for nwqid/count
As specification says, all integers in messages are unsigned. Let's fix
behaviour of p9pdu_vreadf()/p9pdu_vwritef() accordingly.
Fix for p9pdu_vreadf() is critical. If server replies with Rwalk, where
nwqid > SHRT_MAX, the value will be interpreted as negative. kmalloc, in
its order, will cast the value to (very big) size_t.
It should never happen in normal situation: we never submit Twalk with
nwname > 16, but malicious or broken server can still produce
problematic Rwalk.
