[U-Boot] [PATCH v3] Avoid use of divides in print_size

Modification of print_size to avoid use of divides and especially
long long divides. Keep the binary scale factor in terms of bit
shifts instead. This should be faster, since the previous code
gave the compiler no clues that the divides where always powers
of two, preventing optimisation.

Since v1:
Removed misplaced brackets that resulted in round-up value of
5 rather than the intended 0.5. Now passes Timur Tabi's test.

Since v2:
Fix overflow in calculation of 0.5 rounding value for numbers
with engineered factional parts representing values >4GiB
