The `test-tool genrandom` test helper can be used to generate random
data, either as an infinite stream or with a specified number of bytes.
The way we handle parsing the number of bytes is lacking though:
- We don't have good error handling, so if the caller for example uses
`test-tool genrandom 200xyz` then we'll end up generating 200 bytes
of random data successfully.
- Many callers want to generate e.g. 1 kilobyte or megabyte of data,
but they have to either use unwieldy numbers like 1048576, or they
have to precompute them.
Fix both of these issues by using `git_parse_ulong()` to parse the
argument. This function has better error handling, and it knows to
handle unit suffixes.
Adapt a couple of our tests to use suffixes instead of manual
computations.
