[ntl] overflow issue when pass size_t value to Mat<size_t>

[Qifan Wang]

Dear author,
  I'm using the NTL library. But I encounter a problem. That is, I'm using
size_t in my code, but when I create Mat<size_t> mat; mat.setDims(row,
col), it will cause the overflow issue. (row and col is size_t type).
 In matrix.h: https://libntl.org/doc/matrix.cpp.html
 we can see that void SetDims(long n, long m); all of these are long type.

Best wishes,
Qifan
