commit: https://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=656ca7bdd992f6aabbdd5cadbac5241f6e1971a1
branch: https://git.busybox.net/busybox/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Since we're comparing the return value to a smallish integer anyway, we
might as well use that bb_strtou() returns UINT_MAX for malformed
input. Referencing errno is kinda bloaty on glibc.

While NSIG is not in POSIX, we do already rely on it being defined,
compile-time const and smallish, since arrays in struct globals_misc are
defined in terms of it.
