[Aide] AIDE compare_dbline function returns int

[Patrick Neely]

The compare_dbline functions returns an int, even though it can contain 
numbers larger than type int.  For example, DB_SELINUX, DB_XATTRS, and 
DB_WHIRLPOOL are all larger than the int return value.

Included is a patch against aide-0.13.1, but it appears that it is still 
a problem in aide-0.14.

Is this included patch the best approach to this problem?

Thanks,

Patrick Neely
