Treat UNIQ column as signed integer rather than unsigned integer

Leo P. Singer requested to merge leo-singer/ligo.skymap:uniq-signed into master

All functions in ligo.skymap.moc now assume that uniq is a signed integer. This makes it easier to call these functions with Numpy indexing routines, which work with signed integers. Also, saved multi-order sky maps will now be read correctly by tools such as fv from HEASOFT, which do not correctly handle unsigned integer columns.

See emfollow/userguide#115.
