libbpf: Fix sign expansion bug in btf_dump_get_enum_value()

The code here is supposed to take a signed int and store it in a signed
long long. Unfortunately, the way that the type promotion works with
this conditional statement is that it takes a signed int, type promotes
it to a __u32, and then stores that as a signed long long. The result is
never negative.

This is from static analysis, but I made a little test program just to
test it before I sent the patch:

  #include <stdio.h>

  int main(void)
  {
        unsigned long long src = -1ULL;
        signed long long dst1, dst2;
        int is_signed = 1;

        dst1 = is_signed ? *(int *)&src : *(unsigned int *)0;
        dst2 = is_signed ? (signed long long)*(int *)&src : *(unsigned int *)0;

        printf("%lld\n", dst1);
        printf("%lld\n", dst2);

        return 0;
  }
