fsck --name-objects: be more careful parsing generation numbers

Browse Source 
In 7b35efd734 (fsck_walk(): optionally name objects on the go,
2016-07-17), the `fsck` machinery learned to optionally name the
objects, so that it is easier to see what part of the repository is in a
bad shape, say, when objects are missing.

To save on complexity, this machinery uses a parser to determine the
name of a parent given a commit's name: any `~<n>` suffix is parsed and
the parent's name is formed from the prefix together with `~<n+1>`.

However, this parser has a bug: if it finds a suffix `<n>` that is _not_
`~<n>`, it will mistake the empty string for the prefix and `<n>` for
the generation number. In other words, it will generate a name of the
form `~<bogus-number>`.

Let's fix this.
