[issue7458] crash in str.find() and str.rfind() with invalid start value

The bug was introduced in Python 2.5 during the needforspeed sprint:
r46469 (May 27 2006).
http://wiki.python.org/moin/NeedForSpeed

Python < 2.5 is not affected, Python 3.x is affected.

CRASH_rfind.py is more stable and should always crash if your Python
version has the bug.
