To enable compilation of code which includes the Random123 RNG library, we need the std::make_signed<> templates, which I am adding in this PR.

Thanks for this!

Just a few small additions needed.

Need a separate specialization for char (which is a distinct type and not necessarily signed or unsigned).

template<> struct make_signed<unsigned long long> { typedef signed long long type; };

template<typename T> struct make_unsigned { typedef T type; };
template<> struct make_unsigned<char> { typedef unsigned char type; };

Also need specializations to preserve CV-qualifiers.

Can you add a specialization for bool with no implementation.

template<> struct make_signed<unsigned long> { typedef signed long type; };
template<> struct make_signed<unsigned long long> { typedef signed long long type; };

Also can you add a TODO noting that there are more complicated rules for enums, char, wchar_t etc. that aren't implemented here.
