Make the fscanf and scanf format specifiers match the type of the
target variable. This prevents trying to store a long int into an
afs_int32 variable which may be smaller, and overwriting neighbouring
data on the stack.
The effect on a 64-bit Linux system was that the high bits of "rank"
would overwrite the first 4 bytes of the scanned host name, causing
setserverprefs to fail with:
: couldn't resolve name.
