sort: don't print uninitialized in diagnostic
* src/sort.c (specify_nmerge): Do use uinttostr value. Provoke with e.g., sort -m --batch-size=18446744073709551617 Omit quotes around known-numeric value in diagnostic. * tests/misc/sort-merge [nmerge-big]: Tighten ERR_SUBST regexp to require a numeric value in that diagnostic, so this particular failure cannot reappear.
