Fix off by one error in slab.h

Subject: Fix off by one error in slab.h

We ran into some strange issues as a result of an off by one isse in slab.h

The root of the issue is the treatment of KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH that is confusing.

Make KMALLOC_SHIFT_HIGH the first unsupported size instead of the last supported.
