[PATCH v2] ring-buffer: report header_page overwrite as char

[Cao Ruichuang <create0818@163.com>]

The header_page tracefs metadata currently reports overwrite as an
int field with size 1. That makes parsers warn about a type and
size mismatch even though the field is only used as a one-byte flag
within commit.

Keep the shared offset with commit as-is, but report overwrite as
char so the declared type matches the hardcoded size. The signedness
is already carried separately by the emitted signed field.
