decompress_bunzip2: fix rare decompression failure
The decompression code parses a huffman tree and counts the number of symbols for a given bit length. In rare cases, there may be >= 256 symbols with a given bit length, causing the unsigned char to overflow. This causes a decompression failure later when the code tries and fails to find the bit length for a given symbol. Since the maximum number of symbols is 258, use unsigned short instead.
