[PATCH] NTP shift_right cleanup

Create a macro shift_right() that avoids the numerous ugly conditionals in the
NTP code that look like:

        if(a < 0)
                b = -(-a >> shift);
        else
                b = a >> shift;

Replacing it with:

        b = shift_right(a, shift);

This should have zero effect on the logic, however it should probably have
a bit of testing just to be sure.

Also replace open-coded min/max with the macros.
