When examining addresses associated with blocks with non-contiguous
address ranges, it's not uncommon to see large positive offsets which,
for some address width, actually represent a smaller negative offset.
Here's an example taken from the test case (using the
dw2-ranges-func-lo-cold executable):

    (gdb) x/5i foo_cold
       0x40110d <foo+4294967277>: push   %rbp
       0x40110e <foo+4294967278>: mov    %rsp,%rbp
       0x401111 <foo+4294967281>: callq  0x401106 <baz>
       0x401116 <foo+4294967286>: nop
       0x401117 <foo+4294967287>: pop    %rbp

This commit, in conjuction with an earlier patch from this series, causes
cases like the above to be displayed like this (below) instead:

(gdb) x/5i foo_cold
   0x40110d <foo_cold>: push   %rbp
   0x40110e <foo-18>: mov    %rsp,%rbp
   0x401111 <foo-15>: callq  0x401106 <baz>
   0x401116 <foo-10>: nop
   0x401117 <foo-9>: pop    %rbp

Note that the address of foo_cold is now (due to another patch) being
displayed as <foo_cold> instead of <foo+BigOffset>.  The subsequent
lines are shown as negative offsets from foo.

Disassembly using the "disassemble" command is somewhat affected by
these changes:

Before:

(gdb) disassemble foo_cold
Dump of assembler code for function foo:

End of assembler dump.

End of assembler dump.

Note that negative offsets are now displayed without the leading "+".
Also, the callq to foo_cold is now displayed as such instead of a callq
to foo with a large positive offset.

gdb/ChangeLog:

* printcmd.c (print_address_symbolic): Print negative offsets.
(build_address_symbolic): Force signed arithmetic when computing
offset.
