Add regression test for #832: script compare with negative number (#1071)

Comparing against negative literals (e.g., "A!=-1") used to throw
"operator cannot be mixed with previous operators" because the unary
minus prefix was in a conflicting operator group. This was resolved by
the #1029 fix (string_concat operand change). This commit adds a
regression test covering both direct script evaluation and XML
precondition usage.
