perf data: Fix signedness of value

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
 32 bit int can be.

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