Fix overflow in rustc happening if the `err_count()` is reduced in a stage.
This can happen if stashed diagnostics are removed or replaced with fewer errors. The semantics stay the same if built without overflow checks. Fixes#84219.
Background: I came across this independently by running `RUSTFLAGS="-C overflow-checks=on" ./x.py test`. Fixing this will allow us to move on and find further overflow errors with testing or fuzzing.
