Fix signed subtraction overflow in CBigNum::setint64().

Browse Source 
As noticed by sipa (Pieter Wuille), this can happen when CBigNum::setint64() is
called with an integer value of INT64_MIN (-2^63).

When compiled with -ftrapv, the program would crash. Otherwise, it would
execute an undefined operation (although in practice, usually the correct one).
