BR3041451: Implement upper bound for %rep counter

Browse Source 
Since %rep counter is a 64 bit signed integer we have to use some
"maximum possible value" limit (upper bound) otherwise there may be
a situation when %rep counter is 0 or even negative while user
has been passing big positive integer value.

\b Fixed assignment the magnitude of \c{%rep} counter. It is limited
to 62 bits now.
\b Fixed NULL dereference if argument of \c{%strlen} resolves

Note a maximum repeat count is limited by 62 bit number, though it
is hardly possible that you ever need anything bigger.
