Fix several possible panics and overflows

Adjust several integer types to be a lower or unsigned type.
Most types were too large, only because the function which used this
value needed that specific type. But, this allowed too large values
which either caused panics or might cause a DoS.

This does however might possible cause configurations which have larger
values, which are probably way too large anyway to be not loaded or use
their defaults. During the config loading, either via env or json, it
will show error logs regarding these items.

Also fixed an issue with protected actions via OTP, it increased the
attempt before it validated if the attempt limit was reached. This could
cause an issue when set to `1`, that way it was never allowed, and `3`
times would actually be `2`.

Also added several config validation checks which otherwise would have
prevent Vaultwarden to start, or login, so these will probably not cause
issues, else users would already have issues.
