Fix some corner cases of isapprox with unsigned integers #55828

Since the order of the operands when doing the difference between two unsigned integers is particularly important, always make sure we do the difference between the larger number and the smaller one. This addresses some of the corner cases described in #50380 and #55814, but it doesn't fully solve them as the remaining issues with the signed integers (for which there are already tests marked as broken) need a different treatment.

Seems to me like a straight up bug fix; if nothing else, isapprox should always be symmetrical. This is clearly a bug, imo:

julia> isapprox(0x00, 0xff, atol=1)
true

julia> isapprox(0xff, 0x00, atol=1)
false
