shp2pgsql uses the wrong return type for pgis_getopt

Description
pgis_getopt is defined to return an int (like a normal getopt).
However in shp2pgsql-cli and -gui the value is being stored as a char.
The compiler then promotes this char back to an int to compare with EOF. The promotion of a char to an int with respect to negative numbers differs based on hardware platform. On powerpc the ((char)-1) != -1
If we store the result of pgis_getopt as an int we avoid this issue.
Patch attached.
