Negative Duration does not round-trip properly after v2.12.0 with WRITE_DURATIONS_AS_TIMESTAMPS enabled

[jmuia]

I found this similar issue #165 but it seems different, as that user reported a bug on 2.10.2 and refers to a different config option.

WRITE_DURATIONS_AS_TIMESTAMPS defaults to true.

Before v2.12.0

WRITE_DURATIONS_AS_TIMESTAMPS set to true.

It seems that a negative value...

• Serializes incorrectly ❌
• Deserializes back to the original value ✅

v2.12.0 and later (including 2.18.2)

WRITE_DURATIONS_AS_TIMESTAMPS set to true.

It seems that a negative value...

• Serializes correctly ✅
• Deserializes incorrectly ❌

Here is an example repo demonstrating the problem https://github.com/jmuia/jackson-duration-serialization

Here's inlined class from reproduction link from above:

        JsonMapper mapper = JsonMapper.builder()
                .addModule(new JavaTimeModule())
                .build();

        Duration duration = Duration.parse("PT-43.636S");

        String ser = mapper.writeValueAsString(duration);

        // 2.12.0+
        assertEquals("-43.636000000", ser);

        // 2.11.4

        assertEquals(duration, deser);
    }
}

And just so it is clear, 2.11 and 2.12 are old unmaintained versions (minus possible security fixes): fix, if any should go in 2.18.x so let's repro with 2.18.2.
