Instead of repeating this with every message, we should clarify this in
the section "Message Data Types".

I had always assumed that a type designation like Int16 or Int32 is
signed, because of how they look like C types. But on the other hand,
the POSIX functions to convert between host and network order only deal
with unsigned types. So it's not obvious either way.
