Ganesh Ajjanagadde 265f83fd35 avutil/common: add FFDIFFSIGN macro
This is of use for defining comparator callbacks. Common approaches like
return x-y are not safe due to the risks of overflow.
Furthermore, the (x > y) - (x < y) trick is optimized to branchless
code.
This also documents this macro accordingly.
