[PATCH v6 2/3] merge: replace atoi() with strtol_i() for marker size validation

["Usman Akinyemi via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

From: Usman Akinyemi <usmanakinyemi202@gmail.com>

Replace atoi() with strtol_i() for parsing conflict-marker-size to
improve error handling. Invalid values, such as those containing letters
now trigger a clear error message.
Update the test to verify invalid input handling.
