Infinite loop in livejournal API importer

Description

The new LiveJournal API importer #8999 gets stuck in an infinite loop when importing from a journal that has 0 comments.

The fault seems to lie with the $maxid > $highest_id logic in download_comments(). The first of those ("loop over the metadata request until we have it all") loops infinitely because $highest_id is never incremented.

Once we've sorted out the discussion going on over at #8999, I'll get a patch on here to handle this.
