On some platforms, `char` is unsigned, which makes casting -7 to char overflow, which in turn makes the clamping operation bogus. Instead, deal with an explicit `s8` type, so that the comparison is always signed, and return an s8 result from the function as well. Note that this function's result is assigned to a `short`, which is always signed.
