The `relative_list_list_entry_t` offset field in the Objective-C runtime is of type `int64_t`. There are cases where these offsets are negative values. For negative offsets, LLDB would currently incorrectly zero-extend the offset (dropping the fact that the offset was negative), instead producing large offsets that, when added to the `m_baseMethods_ptr` result in addresses that had their upper bits set (e.g., `0x00017ff81b3241b0`). We then would try to `GetMethodList` from such an address but fail to read it (because it's an invalid address). This would manifest in Objective-C decls not getting completed correctly (and formatters not working). We noticed this in CI failures on our Intel bots. This happened to work fine on arm64 because we strip the upper bits when calling `ClassDescriptorV2::method_list_t::Read` using the `FixCodeAddress` ABI plugin API (which doesn't do that on Intel).

The fix is to sign-extend the offset calculation.
