[BUG] Conversion of String to Number don't check negatives ( proposed fix may not be best )

Edgar, you are right!

We have both String>>asInteger and String>>asSignedInteger already.
The proposed fix for String>>asInteger makes it work like the existing
String>>asSignedInteger.
There are no senders of #asSignedInteger in the 3.7 image.

Therefore I think that a simpler and better "fix" is to just get rid of
the existing String>>asInteger, and rename #asSignedInteger to
#asInteger. That will eliminate one method, make #asInteger behave as
expected, and no further changes would be required.
