[GSOC][PATCH v3 0/6] apply: address -Wsign-comparison warnings

[Zejun Zhao <jelly.zhao.42@gmail.com>]

This is the v3 of this patch set.

Changes from v2:

  - change `patch::lines_added/deleted` to unsigned

  - use `unsigned int` instead of `unsigned`

  - separate irrelevant changes from the "loop counter" commit

Below are the cover letter from the v2.

There are several -Wsign-comparison warnings in "apply.c", which can be
classified into the following three types:

  1. comparing a length of `size_t` type with a `ptrdiff_t` value

  2. comparing a length of `size_t` type with a length of `int` type

  3. comparing a loop counter `i` of `int` type with an unsigned loop
  bound

Fix these warnings following one basic principle: do not touch the
relevant logics and keep the behaviors of the code. Adopt three
different strategies for each of the above three types:

  1. cast the `ptrdiff_t` values to `size_t` type

  2. try to change the type of the `int` length to `size_t` (may fall 
  back to Strategy 1 if the variable is not guaranteed to be unsigned)

  3. use a loop counter `i` of `size_t` type

Zejun Zhao (6):
  apply: correct type misuse in `apply.h`
  apply: change some variables from `int` to `size_t`
  apply: do a typecast to eliminate warnings
  apply: cast some ptrdiff_t's to size_t's
  apply: use `size_t` loop counters
  apply: enable -Wsign-comparison checks

    -    apply: change fields in `apply_state` to unsigned
    +    apply: correct type misuse in `apply.h`
     
    -    `.max_change` and `.max_len` of `apply_state` are only used as unsigned
    -    integers. Misuse of `int` type would cause -Wsign-comparison warnings.
    +    There are a few `int` fields of structs in `apply.h` that are only used
    +    as unsigned integer and are only assigned unsigned integer value. Some
    +    of these misuse of `int` type would cause -Wsign-comparison warnings.
     
         Fix this by
     
    -      - change `.max_change`'s type to `unsigned` since it's just a counter
    +      - change `apply_state::max_change`'s type to `unsigned int` since it's
    +        just a counter of lines
     
    -      - change `.max_len`'s type to `size_t` since it's a length
    +      - change `apply_state::max_len`'s type to `size_t` since it's storing
    +        a length
     
    -      - change the types of relevant variables in function `show_stats`
    +      - change `patch::lines_added/deleted`'s types to `unsigned int` since
    +        they are just counters of lines
    +
    +      - change the types of relevant variables in function `show_stats` and
    +        `patch_stats`
     
         Note that `printf`'s format string requires us to do some typecast
         (from `size_t` to `int`) on `max` in function `show_stats`. This is
