[PATCH v3 5/7] selftests/powerpc: Parse long/unsigned long value safely

Often a file is expected to hold an integral value. Existing functions
will use a C stdlib function like atoi or strtol to parse the file.
These operations are error prone, with complicated error conditions
(atoi returns 0 if not a number, and is undefined behaviour if not in
range. strtol returns 0 if not a number, and LONG_MIN/MAX if not in
range + sets errno to ERANGE).

Add a dedicated parse function that accounts for these error conditions
so tests can safely parse numbers without undetected bad data. It's a
bit ugly to generate the functions through a macro, but it beats copying
the error check logic multiple times over.
