IIRC, Måns started to make the channel layouts unsigned all over the place
a while ago. I'm not sure we want to do that actually. We will need to
replace the channel layouts -1 into ~0 (or similar), change quite a bunch
of public prototypes (though, it should not really break API/ABI), and
yes, also change the shift into 1ULL<<x or UINT64_C(1)<<x in a few places.
