common: New function string_to_u64.

* common/stringhelp.c (string_to_u64): New.
* dirmngr/http.c (longcounter_t): Remove.
(struct cookie_s): Change content_length to uint64_t.
(parse_response): Use string_to_u64.

Meanwhile we allow some C99 features including stdint.h.  Thus we can
simplify things now.
