The variable we use to keep track of the watcher of the ssl connection
should be unsigned. This isn't really a problem in Pidgin, where we
use glib's mainloop and GIOChannels because glib starts assigning the
handle IDs sequentially starting from 1.
But if an eventloop implementation ever returns a handle ID greater
than the largest possible signed integer (2,147,483,647) then we
won't be able to remove the watcher because purple_ssl_close() in
sslconn.c only removes it if inpa > 0, and since it interprets inpa
as a signed value then handles over 2,147,483,647 appear as negative
numbers.
I stumbled upon this when playing around with libevent, which can
use epoll. My implementation generated a random handle ID which
was sometimes greater than 2,147,483,647.
I don't believe this breaks binary compatibility. And I don't think
it breaks source compatibility, but I guess it might depend on what
compiler you're using.
