In randpkt.c, the use of ssize_t is, not entirely surprisingly, inside "#ifndef
_WIN32"/"#endif".  It's only used in code that uses /dev/random, which is a
UN*Xism, and the value is ssize_t because that's what read() returns on UN*X.

gtk/export_object.c is a bit more work, but we could probably add a ws_ssize_t
type in wsutil/file_util.h and have it be ssize_t on UN*X and int on Windows,
to match the return value of write() on UN*X and _write() on Windows.

That should let us get rid of the definition of ssize_t.
