[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] Use signbit() in IS_NEGATIVE and DIFFERENT_SIGNS

signbit() appears to be available everywhere (even MSVC according to
MSDN), so let's use it instead of open-coding some messy and confusing
bit twiddling macros.

Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54805

I'd prefer to see if we can use this everywhere before we decide to keep
the open-coded macros around for other platforms.

Alan, does this work for you on Solaris?
