Make negative integers be represented with "-" in any base, not just base 10.

Base 10 is not special. Printing a negative number such as -15 in base 16 should show -F, not FFFFFFF1. For the result with the many Fs, the number should be converted to unsigned long (or unsigned int for fewer Fs).
Issue #4460 complains about the behavior of
printfor negative ints (which prints them as unsignedlong), and I think the best solution would be to be consistent with what negative integers actually represent rather than with what printf does in C.
