  76  * Parse a description in string `s' for a set of non-negative integers
  77  * within the limits given by the input parameters `min' and `max', and
  78  * which consists of the following ranges, separated by commas (`n' and `m'
  79  * are non-negative integers):
  80  *
  81  *   -n       min <= x <= n
  82  *   n        x = n; this is a shorthand for `n-n'
  83  *   n-m      n <= x <= m (or  m <= x <= n  if  m < n)
  84  *   m-       m <= x <= max
  85  *   -        min <= x <= max
  86  *
  87  * Superfluous commas are ignored, as is whitespace around numbers, dashes,
  88  * and commas.  The ranges must be ordered, without overlaps.  As a
  89  * consequence, `-n' and `m-' can occur at most once and must be then the
  90  * first and last range, respectively; similarly, `-' cannot be paired with
  91  * any other range.
  92  *
  93  * In the following examples, `min' is 4 and `max' is 12:
  94  *
  95  *   -                ->    4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
  96  *   -3, 5-           ->    invalid first range
  97  *   4, 6-8, 10-      ->    4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12
  98  *   4-8, 6-10        ->    invalid overlapping ranges
  99  *
 100  * In case of success (this is, the number set description in `s' is valid)
 101  * the return value is a pointer to the final zero byte in string `s'.  In
 102  * case of an error, the return value is a pointer to the beginning position
 103  * of the offending range in string `s'.
 104  *
 105  * If s is NULL, the function exits immediately with NULL as the return
 106  * value.
 107  *
 108  * If the user provides a non-NULL `number_set' value, `number_set_parse'
 109  * stores a linked list of ordered number ranges in `*number_set', allocated
 110  * with `malloc'.  If there is no range at all (for example, an empty string
 111  * or whitespace and commas only) no data gets allocated, and `*number_set'
 112  * is set to NULL.  In case of error, `*number_set' returns an error code;
 113  * you should use the following macros to compare with.
 114  *
 115  *   NUMBERSET_INVALID_CHARACTER   invalid character in description string
 116  *   NUMBERSET_OVERFLOW            numerical overflow
 117  *   NUMBERSET_INVALID_RANGE       invalid range, exceeding `min' or `max'
 118  *   NUMBERSET_OVERLAPPING_RANGES  overlapping ranges
 119  *   NUMBERSET_NOT_ASCENDING       not ascending ranges or values
 120  *   NUMBERSET_ALLOCATION_ERROR    allocation error
 121  *
 122  * Note that a negative value for `min' is replaced with zero, and a
 123  * negative value for `max' with the largest representable integer, INT_MAX.
