Bug #19284: Integer overflow when using RUBY_GC_HEAP_INIT_SLOTS environment variable

* Author: zeke (Zeke Gabrielse)
* Status: Open

* ruby -v: ruby 3.2.0 (2022-12-25 revision a528908271) [x86_64-darwin19]
* Backport: 2.7: DONTNEED, 3.0: DONTNEED, 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: REQUIRED
----------------------------------------
If you set the environment variable `RUBY_GC_HEAP_INIT_SLOTS` to anything other than `0`, an integer overflow runtime error occurs:

```ruby
RUBY_GC_HEAP_INIT_SLOTS=10000 ruby -e 'puts "hello, world!"'
# => ruby: integer overflow: 3689348814741910508 * 8 > 18446744073709551615 (RuntimeError)
```

At this time, I'm not sure if this is platform-specific, but it's failing on Darwin as well as Heroku's environment (Linux).
