This pull request solves the issue described in #221.
Negative temperature values from a DHT22 sensor can be interpreted as a 16 bit signed integer (short). There is no additional differentiation needed.
The patch was successfully tested using five different DHT22 sensors on an Arduino UNO and an ESP8266 at positive and negative temperatures.
