[C PATCH] Abate -Wformat-signedness warnings (PR c/65040)


This patch tries to avoid emitting -Wformat-signedness warnings in cases
where integer promotions are performed on unsigned values such as:
  unsigned short arg = N;
  printf ("%u\n", arg);
here we can know that the promoted value of arg is in range <0, USHRT_MAX>, or
  printf ("%" PRIx8, (uint8_t) val);
where the warning is just irritating.

Fixed by bailing out when we see a value of unsigned type that has been
promoted and the conversion specifier is of unsigned type.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux, ok for trunk?

	PR c/65040
	* c-format.c (check_format_types): Don't warn about different
	signedness if the original value is in the range of WANTED_TYPE.

	* c-c++-common/pr65040.c: New test.
