UMBalloc

Allocates an Upper Memory Block.

To determine the largest available UMB block, call this function with the size
parameter set to 0xFFFF.

Prototype.......IntT PAS UMBalloc(WrdT np, _SegFP ps);

Arguments.......np -  Number of Paragraphs to Allocate
                ps -  FAR Pointer to location to store returned segment
                      address
