  39  * Parse a description in string `s' for a set of non-negative integers
  40  * within the limits given by the input parameters `min' and `max', and
  41  * which consists of the following ranges, separated by commas (`n' and `m'
  42  * are non-negative integers):
  43  *
  44  *   -n       min <= x <= n
  45  *   n        x = n; this is a shorthand for `n-n'
  46  *   n-m      n <= x <= m (or  m <= x <= n  if  m < n)
  47  *   m-       m <= x <= max
  48  *   -        min <= x <= max
  49  *
  50  * Superfluous commas are ignored, as is whitespace around numbers, dashes,
  51  * and commas.  The ranges must be ordered, without overlaps.  As a
  52  * consequence, `-n' and `m-' can occur at most once and must be then the
  53  * first and last range, respectively; similarly, `-' cannot be paired with
  54  * any other range.
  55  *
  56  * In the following examples, `min' is 4 and `max' is 12:
  57  *
  58  *   -                ->    4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
  59  *   -3, 5-           ->    invalid first range
  60  *   4, 6-8, 10-      ->    4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12
  61  *   4-8, 6-10        ->    invalid overlapping ranges
  62  *
  63  * In case of success (this is, the number set description in `s' is valid)
  64  * the return value is a pointer to the final zero byte in string `s'.  In
  65  * case of an error, the return value is a pointer to the beginning position
  66  * of the offending range in string `s'.
  67  *
  68  * If s is NULL, the function exits immediately with NULL as the return
  69  * value.
  70  *
  71  * If the user provides a non-NULL `number_set' value, `number_set_parse'
  72  * stores a linked list of ordered number ranges in `*number_set', allocated
  73  * with `malloc'.  If there is no range at all (for example, an empty string
  74  * or whitespace and commas only) no data gets allocated, and `*number_set'
  75  * is set to NULL.  In case of error, `*number_set' returns an error code;
  76  * you should use the following macros to compare with.
  77  *
  78  *   NUMBERSET_INVALID_CHARACTER   invalid character in description string
  79  *   NUMBERSET_OVERFLOW            numerical overflow
  80  *   NUMBERSET_INVALID_RANGE       invalid range, exceeding `min' or `max'
  81  *   NUMBERSET_OVERLAPPING_RANGES  overlapping ranges
  82  *   NUMBERSET_NOT_ASCENDING       not ascending ranges or values
  83  *   NUMBERSET_ALLOCATION_ERROR    allocation error
  84  *
  85  * Note that a negative value for `min' is replaced with zero, and a
  86  * negative value for `max' with the largest representable integer, INT_MAX.
