Fix userquota_compare() function
The AVL tree compare function requires that either -1, 0, or 1 be returned. However the strcmp() function only guarantees that a negative, zero, or positive value is returned. Therefore, the return value of strcmp() needs to be sanitized with AVL_ISIGN. This was initially overlooked because the x86_64 implementation of strcmp() happens to only returns the allowed values. This was observed on an aarch64 platform which behaves correctly but differently as described above.
