tools lib subcmd: Make it an error to pass a signed value to OPTION_UINTEGER
Options marked OPTION_UINTEGER or OPTION_U64 clearly indicates that an
unsigned value is expected, so just error out when a negative value is
passed, instead of returning something undesired to the tool.
E.g.:
# perf bench futex hash -t -4
# Running 'futex/hash' benchmark:
Error: switch `t' expects an unsigned numerical value
Usage: perf bench futex hash <options>
-t, --threads <n> Specify amount of threads
