Add assertion about ssize_t narrowing in AIO code

The result from pg_preadv() or pg_pwritev(), which is of type ssize_t,
is assigned to PgAioHandle.result, which is of type int.  This should
be ok because the maximum result is limited by PG_IOV_MAX times
BLCKSZ.  Add an assertion and a code comment to explain and check
this.
