This patch improves the verifier to correctly compute bounds for sign extension compiler pattern composed of left shift by 32bits followed by a sign right shift by 32bits. Pattern in the verifier was limitted to positive value bounds and would reset bound computation for negative values. New code allows both positive and negative values for sign extension without compromising bound computation and verifier to pass. This change is required by GCC which generate such pattern, and was detected in the context of systemd, as described in the following GCC bugzilla: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=119731 Three new tests were added in verifier_subreg.c.
