As added in 1de09ad8 the new functions
all accept signed integers as parameters. That's not great, because
it's perfectly reasonable to call them with unsigned parameters.
Unfortunately unsigned to signed conversion is not well defined, when
exceeding the range of the signed value.  That's presently not a
practical issue in postgres (among other reasons because we force
gcc's hand with -fwrapv).  But it's clearly not quite right.

Thus change the signatures to accept unsigned integers instead, signed
to unsigned conversion is always well defined. Also change the
backward compat pq_sendint() - while it's deprecated it seems better
to be consistent.

Per discussion between Andrew Gierth, Michael Paquier, Alvaro Herrera
and Tom Lane.
