[PATCH] fix strverscmp comparison of digit sequence with non-digits

[Brian Inglis]

the rule that longest digit sequence not beginning with a zero is
greater only applies when both sequences being compared are
non-degenerate. this is spelled out explicitly in the man page, which
may be deemed authoritative for this nonstandard function: "If one or
both of these is empty, then return what strcmp(3) would have
returned..."

we were wrongly treating any sequence of digits not beginning with a
zero as greater than a non-digit in the other string.
