carp: deal with negative net.inet.carp.demotion
Given nodes 1 and 2, where node 1 has an advskew of 0 and node 2 has an
advskew of 100, making them master and backup respectively.
If net.inet.carp.demotion is set to a negative value on node 1, node 2
might become master while node 1 still retains it master status. Wether
or not node 2 becomes master seems to depend on the nodes advskew and
what the demotion sysctl was set to on node 1.
The reason for node 2 becoming master seems to be that the calculated
advskew taking demotion into account is truncated to a single unsigned
byte when copied into the carp header for sending, and node 1 stays
master since it takes uses the whole non-truncated calculated advskew
when deciding wether to stay master.
