Description
MultiBranchNode::required_outcnt() currently returns a signed int. However, all its implementations return positive integers, or in the case for PcTableNode implicitly convert an unsigned int to int. Further, Node::outcnt returns an int, so there is really no reason for a signed representation of an outcnt.
