malloc a space whose size in bytes is the product of 'factor1' and
'factor2'. But if that size cannot be represented as an unsigned int,
return NULL without allocating anything. Also return NULL if the malloc
fails.
Note that malloc() actually takes a size_t size argument, so the
proper test would be whether the size can be represented by size_t,
not unsigned int. But there is no reliable indication available to
us, like UINT_MAX, of what the limitations of size_t are. We
assume size_t is at least as expressive as unsigned int and that
nobody really needs to allocate more than 4GB of memory.
