[PATCH v1 2/2] curl_off_t xcurl_off_t is not portable

[tboegi@web.de]

From: Torsten Bögershausen <tboegi@web.de>

Comparing signed and unsigned values is not always portable.
When  setting
DEVELOPER = 1
DEVOPTS = extra-all

"gcc (Raspbian 6.3.0-18+rpi1+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516" errors out with
"comparison is always false due to limited range of data type"
"[-Werror=type-limits]"

Solution:
Use a valid cast & compare, similar to xsize_t()
