vim-patch:8.2.3227: 'virtualedit' can only be set globally

Problem:    'virtualedit' can only be set globally.
Solution:   Make 'virtualedit' global-local. (Gary Johnson, closes vim/vim#8638)
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/53ba05b09075f14227f9be831a22ed16f7cc26b2

I changed some macros to unsigned integer literals to avoid compiler warnings.
