* Name: strverscmp
*
* Description:
* Often one has files jan1, jan2, ..., jan9, jan10, ... and it feels
* wrong when ls orders them jan1, jan10, ..., jan2, ..., jan9. In
* order to rectify this, GNU introduced the -v option to ls, which is
* implemented using versionsort, which again uses strverscmp().
*
* Thus, the task of strverscmp() is to compare two strings and find the
* "right" order, while strcmp finds only the lexicographic order. This
* function does not use the locale category LC_COLLATE, so is meant
* mostly for situations where the strings are expected to be in ASCII.
*
* What this function does is the following. If both strings are
* equal, return 0. Otherwise, find the position between two bytes with
* the property that before it both strings are equal, while directly
* after it there is a difference. Find the largest consecutive digit
* strings containing (or starting at, or ending at) this position.
* If one or both of these is empty, then return what strcmp would have
* returned (numerical ordering of byte values). Otherwise, compare both
* digit strings numerically, where digit strings with one or more
* leading zeros are interpreted as if they have a decimal point
* in front (so that in particular digit strings with more leading zeros
* come before digit strings with fewer leading zeros). Thus, the
* ordering is 000, 00, 01, 010, 09, 0, 1, 9, 10.
*
* Returned Value:
* The strverscmp() function returns an integer less than, equal to, or
* greater than zero if s1 is found, respectively, to be earlier than,
* equal to, or later than s2.
*
