OptsVisitor: don't try to flatten overlong integer ranges
Prevent mistyped command line options from incurring high memory and CPU
usage at startup. 64K elements in a range should be enough for everyone
(TM).
The OPTS_VISITOR_RANGE_MAX macro is public so that unit tests can
construct corner cases with it.
