cpupower: Fix cpuidle_set to accept only numeric values for idle-set operation.

For both the d and e options in 'cpupower idle_set' command, an
atoi() conversion is done without checking if the input argument
is all numeric. So, an atoi conversion is done on any character
provided as input and the CPU idle_set operation continues with
that integer value, which may not be what is intended or entirely
correct.

The output of cpuidle-set before patch is as follows:

[root@xxx cpupower]# cpupower idle-set -e 1$
Idlestate 1 enabled on CPU 0
[snip]
Idlestate 1 enabled on CPU 47

[root@xxx cpupower]# cpupower idle-set -e 11
Idlestate 11 not available on CPU 0
[snip]
Idlestate 11 not available on CPU 47

[root@xxx cpupower]# cpupower idle-set -d 12
Idlestate 12 not available on CPU 0
[snip]
Idlestate 12 not available on CPU 47

[root@xxx cpupower]# cpupower idle-set -d qw
Idlestate 0 disabled on CPU 0
[snip]
Idlestate 0 disabled on CPU 47

This patch adds a check for both d and e options in cpuidle-set.c
to see that the idle_set value is all numeric before doing a
string-to-int conversion using strtol().

The output of cpuidle-set after the patch is as below:

[root@xxx cpupower]# ./cpupower idle-set -e 1$
Bad idle_set value: 1$. Integer expected

[root@xxx cpupower]# ./cpupower idle-set -e 11
Idlestate 11 not available on CPU 0
[snip]
Idlestate 11 not available on CPU 47

[root@xxx cpupower]# ./cpupower idle-set -d 12
Idlestate 12 not available on CPU 0
[snip]
Idlestate 12 not available on CPU 47

[root@xxx cpupower]# ./cpupower idle-set -d qw
Bad idle_set value: qw. Integer expected
