[PATCH 17/35] libfdt: fdt_add_string_(): Fix comparison warning

Sebastian Huber sebastian.huber at embedded-brains.de

From: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara at arm.com>

With -Wsign-compare, compilers warn about a mismatching signedness
in a comparison in fdt_add_string_().

Make all variables unsigned, and express the negative offset trick via
subtractions in the code.
