Use unsigned int/short in binary header
S-01594
As a Tullow Geophysicist I want the possibility for SEGY binary headers to be read as unsigned integers and short integers because I have programs that write the data in this manner and it allows using an extra bit of data.
PreDev Notes:
This will involve adding new rules, the details of which will not fully clear until the integration of the SEIS format and creation of a general rule structure. The SEIS format already allows for this.

Success Criteria:
-
Binary headers such as sample interval that do not have valid negative number contents can/are interpreted as unsigned int/short -
Binary headers that can have valid negative numbers are handled appropriately
