Bug#33658: dpkg: portability fix for filesdb.h

[brinkmd@debian.org]

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.1

Hi,

not all systems have sysinfo (for example the Hurd). This patch takes
care of that. I think it is safe to assume largemem if sysinfo is missing.
If you don't agree, you can change the default below to "-1" (in the #else
condition).

Thank you,
Marcus
