If the general direction of this patch series is accepted, I'll
gradually try to go through the codebase, replacing *all* integer
parsing with these functions. So there's no need to request particular
callers of strtol()/strtoul() to be converted; I'll get to them all
sooner or later (I hope).

But in case you have some reason that you want upload-pack.c to be
converted right away, I just pushed that change (plus some related
cleanups) to my GitHub repo [1]. The branch depends only on the first
patch of the "numparse" patch series.

By the way, some other packet line parsing code in that file doesn't
verify that there are no trailing characters on the lines that they
process. That might be another thing that should be tightened up.
