[PATCH] Avoid interpreting too-long parameter as file name

Even if it is easier to write HEAD~2000, it is legal to write
HEAD^^^... (repeats "^" 2000 times in total). However, such a string is
too long to be a legal filename (and on Windows, by default even much,
much shorter strings are still illegal because they exceed MAX_PATH).

Therefore, if the check_filename() function encounters too long a
command-line parameter, it should interpet the error code ENAMETOOLONG
as a strong hint that this is not a file name instead of dying with an
error message.

 Note, git grep ENOENT.*ENOTDIR reveals a couple more matches, but I
 didn't check if they should receive the same treatment.

 Another option is just use file_exists() here instead, but I guess
 that's too relaxing.
