A negative number under 2s complement can never be equal to its
positive as the top bit *must* be on. If two numbers are equivalent
bit-by-bit then they are equal for both signed and unsigned numbers.
Anything other than char (which can just use print.byte to print the
hex) and byte (which prints hexes anyway), all other types may be
forced to print a hex rather than a number if PRINT_HEX is 1.
I've made a single macro which defines a function through some common
metric, removing code duplication. Not particularly readable per se,
but using a macro expansion in your IDE allows one to inspect the code.
These new members are just signed versions of the previous members.
This makes type punning and usage for signed versions easier than
before (no need for memcpy).
