Fix another ancient bug in parsing of BRE-mode regular expressions.
While poking at the regex code, I happened to notice that the bug squashed in commit afcc8772e had a sibling: next() failed to return a specific value associated with the '}' token for a "\{m,n\}" quantifier when parsing in basic RE mode. Again, this could result in treating the quantifier as non-greedy, which it never should be in basic mode. For that to happen, the last character before "\}" that sets "nextvalue" would have to set it to zero, or it'd have to have accidentally been zero from the start. The failure can be provoked repeatably with, for example, a bound ending in digit "0". Like the previous patch, back-patch all the way.
