tracing/filters: distinguish between signed and unsigned fields
The new filter comparison ops need to be able to distinguish between signed and unsigned field types, so add an is_signed flag/param to the event field struct/trace_define_fields(). Also define a simple macro, is_signed_type() to determine the signedness at compile time, used in the trace macros. If the is_signed_type() macro won't work with a specific type, a new slightly modified version of TRACE_FIELD() called TRACE_FIELD_SIGN(), allows the signedness to be set explicitly.
