mercurial/parsers.c: fix compiler warning

When try to compile on x64 OS X, I get this warning:

mercurial/parsers.c:931:27: warning: implicit conversion loses integer precision
: 'long' to 'int' [-Wshorten-64-to-32]
                        ? 4 : self->raw_length / 2;

The patch verifies if value of self->raw_length falls bellow INT_MAX; if not,
it raises the ValueError exception.

If value of self->raw_length is greater than 4, it's casted to int type, to
eliminate the warning.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
