Subject: [PATCH] coccinelle: tests: unsigned value cannot be lesser than zero

Unsigned expressions cannot be lesser than zero. Presence of comparisons
'unsigned (<|<=|>|>=) 0' often indicates a bug, usually wrong type of variable.
The patch beside finding such comparisons tries to eliminate false positives,
mainly by bypassing range checks.

gcc can detect such comparisons also using -Wtype-limits switch, but it warns
also in correct cases, making too much noise.

+///
+/// To reduce number of false positives following tests have been added:
+/// - parts of range checks are skipped, eg. "if (u < 0 || u > 15) ...",
+///   developers prefer to keep such code,
+/// - comparisons "<= 0" and "> 0" are performed only on results of
+///   signed functions/macros,
+/// - hardcoded list of signed functions/macros with always non-negative
+///   result is used to avoid false positives difficult to detect by other ways
