bug#19154: [PATCH] Extend file size support in paste.

[Tobias Stoeckmann]

The function paste_parallel just has to remember if there was a character
in a line at all, not how many.  Changing size_t to a simple boolean
statement removes a possible overflow situation with 4 GB files on 32 bit
systems.
