[ctf] Simplify the logic of the unsigned long comparator.
To understand this modification, let assume the "char 8-bits" domain. unsigned [0 .. 255] signed [-128 .. 127] By receiving the parameters encoded in a signed number, the method receives left: [0..127,-128..-1] (which represents [0..127,128..255]) right: [0..127,-128..-1] (which represents [0..127,128..255]) By definition (on an unconstrained domain), this assertion holds left < right <==> left + k < right + k Thus, the idea is to rotate the domain by k to allow a signed operator to be able to compare to full domain. In this case k must be -128. By rotating the domain, left and right range become [-128..-1,0..127], and are now comparable with the signed operator.
