perf tests switch-tracking: Fix timestamp comparison

The test might fail on the Arm64 platform with the error:

  # perf test -vvv "Track with sched_switch"
  Missing sched_switch events
  #

The issue is caused by incorrect handling of timestamp comparisons. The
comparison result, a signed 64-bit value, was being directly cast to an
int, leading to incorrect sorting for sched events.

The case does not fail everytime, usually I can trigger the failure
after run 20 ~ 30 times:

  # while true; do perf test "Track with sched_switch"; done

I used cross compiler to build Perf tool on my host machine and tested on
Debian / Juno board.  Generally, I think this issue is not very specific
to GCC versions.  As both internal CI and my local env can reproduce the
issue.

My Host Build compiler:

  # aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc --version
  aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Ubuntu 13.3.0-6ubuntu2~24.04) 13.3.0

Juno Board:

  # lsb_release -a
  No LSB modules are available.
  Distributor ID: Debian
  Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm)
  Release:        12
  Codename:       bookworm

Fix this by explicitly returning 0, 1, or -1 based on whether the result
is zero, positive, or negative.
