tcg: Remove dh_alias indirection for dh_typecode

The dh_alias redirect is intended to handle TCG types as distinguished
from C types.  TCG does not distinguish signed int from unsigned int,
because they are the same size.  However, we need to retain this
distinction for dh_typecode, lest we fail to extend abi types properly
for the host call parameters.

This bug was detected when running the 'arm' emulator on an s390
system. The s390 uses TCG_TARGET_EXTEND_ARGS which triggers code
in tcg_gen_callN to extend 32 bit values to 64 bits; the incorrect
sign data in the typemask for each argument caused the values to be
extended as unsigned values.

This simple program exhibits the problem:

	static volatile int num = -9;
	static volatile int den = -5;
	int main(void)
	{
		int quo = num / den;
		printf("num %d den %d quo %d\n", num, den, quo);
		exit(0);
	}

When run on the broken qemu, this results in:

	num -9 den -5 quo 0

The correct result is:

	num -9 den -5 quo 1
