bmap-writer: cast BLKGETSIZE64 ioctl request to int for musl

musl's ioctl() takes 'int request' where glibc's takes 'unsigned
long', so passing BLKGETSIZE64 directly trips -Wsign-conversion under
-Werror. Cast it explicitly.

Subject: [PATCH] device: Use the C library's ioctl request type for
BLKGETSIZE64
The type of ioctl()'s request argument differs between C libraries:
glibc declares it as unsigned long, musl and bionic as int. BLKGETSIZE64
is an unsigned long constant, so with -Wconversion -Wsign-conversion
-Werror passing it directly fails on musl, while casting it to int fails
on glibc:
device.cpp:163:50: error: unsigned conversion from 'int' to 'long unsigned int' changes value from '-2146954638' to '18446744071562596978' [-Werror=sign-conversion]
Deduce the request type from the ioctl() declaration and convert the
request code to it explicitly, which builds on both.
