LOG: [libc] Update size_t and ssize_t definitions to use __SIZE_TYPE__ and __PTRDIFF_TYPE__ respectively. (#143921)

The current definition of `ssize_t` does not have the same bit width as
`size_t` on 32-bit platforms.

Added: 
    

Modified: 
    libc/include/llvm-libc-types/size_t.h
    libc/include/llvm-libc-types/ssize_t.h

Removed:
