Make calls to v8::Isolate::AdjustAmountOfExternalAllocatedMemory() take special care when negating 32 bits unsigned types like size_t. Before this commit, values were negated before they got promoted to 64 bits, meaning that on 32 bits architectures, a value like 42 got cast to 4294967254 instead of -42. That in turn made the garbage collector start scavenging like crazy because it thought the system was out of memory. That's bad enough but calls to AdjustAmountOfExternalAllocatedMemory() were made from weak callbacks, i.e. at a time when the garbage collector was already busy. It triggered asserts in debug builds and caused random crashes and memory corruption in release builds. The behavior in release builds is arguably a V8 bug and should perhaps be reported upstream. Partially fixes #7309 but requires further bug fixes to src/smalloc.cc that I'll address in a follow-up commit.v0.11.13-release
