If calculation of size based on its suffix overflows, then treat it as integer overflow. Otherwise, a wrong value is returned. Keep suffixes for backwards compatibility, i.e. report an integer overflow, not an invalid suffix.

You can see the overflow in effect with compiled example, e.g.
./example -size 1Ywhich cannot fit in an unsigned long long, i.e. within 64 bit.
