[PATCH 3/4] fs: fat: use fixed-width 32-bit FatFs types

The comment already says LONG/ULONG/DWORD types should be 32-bit, but
barebox's long is always pointer-sized, so 64-bit on 64-bit platforms.

Use explicit 32-bit types for the FatFs fields that are written to disk
or used in sector calculations.
