libmnl has get and put functions for unsigned integer types. It lacks
support for the signed variations. On some level this is technically
sufficient. A user could use the unsigned variations and then cast to a
signed value at use. However, this makes resulting code in the application
more difficult to follow. Introduce signed variations of the integer get
and put functions.
