config: avoid calling labs() on too-large data type

The `labs()` function operates, as the initial `l` suggests, on `long` parameters. However, in `config.c` we tried to use it on values of type `intmax_t`. This problem was found by GCC v9.x. To fix it, let's just "unroll" the function (i.e. negate the value if it is negative). Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>
