[clang] Fix message text for -Wpointer-sign to account for plain char

The `-Wpointer-sign` warning text is inappropriate for describing the
incompatible pointer conversion between plain `char` and explicitly
`signed`/`unsigned` `char` (whichever plain `char` has the same range
as) and vice versa.

Specifically, in part, it reads "converts between pointers to integer
types with different sign". This patch changes that portion to read
instead as "converts between pointers to integer types where one is of
the unique plain 'char' type and the other is not" when one of the types
is plain `char`.

C17 subclause 6.5.16.1 indicates that the conversions resulting in
`-Wpointer-sign` warnings in assignment-like contexts are constraint
violations. This means that strict conformance requires a diagnostic for
the case where the message text is wrong before this patch. The lack of
an even more specialized warning group is consistent with GCC.
