fix(nntp): support open-ended OVER/XOVER ranges ("n-")

parseRange treated a range of the form "low-" (low article to the
highest available) as malformed and returned an empty (0,0) range, so
OVER/XOVER "n-" returned no articles instead of every article >= n.
RFC 3977 defines a range as a single number, "number-", or
"number-number"; the open-ended form is common in real NNTP clients.

Handle "low-" as (low, MaxInt64), reject specs with more than one dash
(e.g. "1-2-3") as malformed, and keep existing malformed handling so a
bad range still yields an empty range rather than "all articles".
Adds tests for closed, open-ended, empty, and malformed specs.
