[gdal-dev] [OSGeo/gdal] Add GDT_Int8 support (RFC 87) (PR #6633)

Sorry, please disregard my previous email (from my phone at lunch). I had a
poor recollection of the GDALDataType enum.

Changing GDT_Byte to unsigned char is too big of a change, I guess? I can
work with that.

Is there any advantage to a GDT_UInt8 type that can't be changed by a
PIXELTYPE option?
