rev-parse: demonstrate overflow of N for "foo^N" and "foo~N"
If the number gets too high for an int, weird things may happen, as signed overflows are undefined. Add a test to show this; rev-parse "sucessfully" interprets 100000000000000000000000000000000 to be the same as 0, at least on x64 with GCC 9.2.1 and Clang 8.0.1, which is obviously bogus.
