Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/Fix_thread_affinity' into integration_2025_w45 (!3746)

Fix unsigned to signed decoding parameters to allow for 'no affinity'/'no pin'
threads to CPUs

By default, 'L1_rx_thread_core', 'L1_tx_thread_core', 'ru_thread_core' are set
to '-1' but the values were decoded from config file as unsigned instead of
signed types, thus, it was not allowing to set them with '-1' from config file.
