Make range types inherit signed-ness from base type

I ran across this comment in valprint.c:

      /* FIXME: create_static_range_type does not set the unsigned bit in a
         range type (I think it probably should copy it from the target
         type), so we won't print values which are too large to
         fit in a signed integer correctly.  */

It seems to me that a range type ought to inherit its signed-ness from
the underlying type, so this patch implements this change, and removes
the comment.  (It was also copied into m2-valprint.c.)

I also remove the comment about handling ranges of enums, because I
think that comment is incorrect.
