RFR: 8308997: RISC-V: Sign extend when comparing 32-bit value with zero instead of testing the sign bit [v2]

[Dingli Zhang]

> RISC-V branch and jump instructions use 64-bit registers instead of 32-bit 
> versions in RV64I. We use test_bit to test if bit 31 is zero to determine if a
> 32-bit register is less than zero currently.
> 
> However, there will be two instructions when we use test_bit to test bit
> 31/63 without Zbs extension[1], we can just use sign_extend instead, which
> only use one instruction.
> 
> At the same time, we also change some 32-bit symbolic extension operations to
> sign_extend for better readability.
