Hello,
There are several unnecessary uses of the julong type in arguments.cpp that could use size_t instead to fit in better with surrounding code. Almost all flags that are read in arguments.cpp are size_t, and the os functions it interacts with were changed from julong to size_t in [JDK-8357086](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8357086) or are already taking in size_t.
The main usage of julong in runtime/arguments.cpp is in Arguments::set_heap_size() and Arguments::set_aggressive_heap_flags(), where there are a lot of casts from julong types to size_t which could be removed with this change.
Testing:
* Running through Oracle's tier1-3 on all Oracle supported platforms
