If a size of INT_MAX is legal, then you can just use "size + 1U" to
avoid the wraparound. (The allocation will then fail with the default
value of max_alloc_size and in this case the avio_skip() will be
executed, so that we don't lose sync (your patch does that).)
Looking at get_tag() shows that the size actually comes from a uint32_t
which gets truncated to INT_MAX if it is not representable in an int. I
don't know whether the specs mandate this behaviour (probably not, so
one loses sync). If one wanted to impose an arbitrary limit, I will use
something much smaller than INT_MAX.
