Fix incorrect math in DetermineSafeOldestOffset.
The old formula didn't have enough parentheses, so it would do the wrong thing, and it used / rather than % to find a remainder. The effect of these oversights is that the stop point chosen by the logic introduced in commit b69bf30b9bfacafc733a9ba77c9587cf54d06c0c might be rather meaningless. Thomas Munro, reviewed by Kevin Grittner, with a whitespace tweak by me.
