patch-id: replace atoi() with strtol_i_updated()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The change is made to improve the error-handling capabilities
during the conversion of string representations to integers.
The `strtol_i_updated(` function offers a more robust mechanism for
converting strings to integers by providing enhanced error
detection. Unlike `atoi(`, `strtol_i_updated(` allows the code to
differentiate between a valid conversion and an invalid one,
offering better resilience against potential issues such as
reading hunk header of a corrupted patch.
