[PATCH v2] crypto: testmgr: change `guard` to unsigned char

[Joey Pabalinas]

When char is signed, storing the values 0xba (186) and 0xad (173) in the
`guard` array produces signed overflow. Change the type of `guard` to
static unsigned char to correct undefined behavior and reduce function
stack usage.
