+/**
+ * @brief Parse an unsigned decimal integer from a string
+ *
+ * The function expects to find at least one decimal digit, and stops parsing
+ * if it finds something that is not a digit. If diff is NULL, it requires that
+ * the entire string was consumed (either length exhausted or a null-byte was
+ * found), otherwise it returns success.
+ *
+ * Altough numeric overflow is checked for while parsing, the result is only
+ * tested against vmin and vmax, if vmin is less than vmax. Setting them to
+ * the same value disables the range check.
+ *
+ * @param in A pointer to a string to parse
+ * @param len The maximum number of characters to read
+ * @param diff If not NULL, returns the number of characters successfully read
+ * @param vmin A lower bound. If the parsed value is below this, return an error
+ * @param vmax An upper bound. If the value is above this, return an error
+ * @param out If not NULL, returns the result value
+ *
+ * @return Zero on success, @ref SQFS_ERROR_OVERFLOW on numeric overflow,
+ *         @ref SQFS_ERROR_OUT_OF_BOUNDS if the range check failed,
+ *         @ref SQFS_ERROR_CORRUPTED if the string is not a number.
