event/octeontx: resolve possible integer overflow

The last argument passed to ssovf_parsekv() is an
unsigned char*, but it is accessed as an integer.
This can lead to an integer overflow.

Hence, make ensure the argument is accessed as a char
and for better error handling use strtol instead of atoi.

Cast of opaque is unnecessary in C.
Use strtoul to avoid allowing negative numbers.
Passing 2 as argument makes it assume binary so 101 is legal value and returns 5
and it is not helping.


Why not:
