[PATCH 11/11] perf data: Fix signess of value

[Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>]

From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>

When converting int values, perf first extractes it to a ulonglong, then
feeds it to babeltrace as a signed value. For negative 32 bit values
(for example, return values of failed syscalls), the extracted data
should be something like 0xfffffffe (-2). It becomes a large int64
value. Babeltrace denies to insert it with
bt_ctf_field_signed_integer_set_value() because it is larger than
0x7fffffff, the largest positive value a signed 32 bit int can be.

This patch introduces adjust_signess(), which fills high bits of
ulonglong with 1 if the value is negative.
