Make git__strntol64() ~70%* faster
This change uses compiler intrinsics to detect overflows instead of
using divisions to detect potential overflow. This makes the code faster
and makes it easier to read as a bonus side-effect!
Some of the things this quickens:
* Config parsing.
* Tree parsing.
* Smart protocol negotiation.
\* Measured by running `libgit2_clar` with `-fno-optimize-sibling-calls
-fno-omit-frame-pointer` under `perf(1)`:
```shell
$ perf diff --symbols=git__strntol64 --compute=ratio \
--percentage=absolute baseline.data perf.data
\# Event 'cycles'
\#
\# Baseline Ratio Shared Object
\# ........ .............. .............
\#
0.25% 0.321836 libgit2_clar
```
