[xmlsec] Support for really large XML documents

[Aleksey Sanin]

The error indicates that we can't allocate output buffer correctly. If
I would guess, then I would see if the "size" parameter is treated as
negative number when it exceeds 2G.

Try to change include/xmlsec/xmlsec.h and change the xmlSecSize to be
a typedef to size_t all the time (dont' forget to recompile xmlsec
after this change).
