avio_read_to_bprint() uses size_t for its size parameter; the underlying
AVBPrint API uses unsigned. So using an uint64_t (or rather: allowing
something beyond UINT_MAX) seems wrong.
(Even with maximum_manifest_size and filesize <= UINT_MAX, filesize + 1
can already be outside the range of unsigned.)

Btw: Why not use a shorter name for the variable like max_manifest_size?
