strbuf_branchname(): do not double-expand @{-1}~22

If you were on 'frotz' branch before you checked out your current
branch, "git merge @{-1}~22" means the same as "git merge frotz~22".

The strbuf_branchname() function, when interpret_branch_name() gives
up resolving "@{-1}~22" fully, returns "frotz" and tells the caller
that it only resolved "@{-1}" part of the input, mistakes this as a
total failure, and appends the whole thing to the result, yielding
"frotz@{-1}~22", which does not make any sense.

Inspect the return value from interpret_branch_name() a bit more
carefully.  When it errored out without consuming anything, we will
get -1 and we should return the whole thing.  Otherwise, we should
append the remainder (i.e. "~22" in the earlier example) to the
partially resolved name (i.e. "frotz").

The test suite adds enough number of checkout to make @{-12} in the
last test in t0100 that tried to check "we haven't flipped branches
that many times" error case succeed; raise the number to a hundred.
