revision: parse "git log -<count>" more carefully

This mistyped command line simply ignores "master" and ends up
showing two commits from the current HEAD:

    $ git log -2master

because we feed "2master" to atoi() without making sure that the
whole string is parsed as an integer.

Use the strtol_i() helper function instead.
