parsing string without branching

[wutzi15]

Now parsing the int without explicit branch. In my tests this speeds up from (13.52 +- 1.18)s down to (13.07+-0.87)s measured across 15 runs. This is a speed-up of 3.39%.

Please verify

Ooh, clever. Nicely done. I’ll verify as soon as I get a chance, but from a first glance it looks good to me!
