Hmmm -Wextra isn't normally set.
But I do wish the compiler would do dead code elimination before
these warnings.

Apart from stopping code using min()/max() for pointer types
(all the type checking is pointless) I think that __is_constextr()
can be implemented using _Generic (instead of sizeof(type)) and then the
true/false return values can be specified and need not be the same types.
That test can then be:
	(__if_constexpr(x, x, -1) >= 0)
(The '+ 0' is there to convert bool to int and won't be needed
for non-constant bool.)

I may drop the last few patches until MIN/MAX have been removed
from everywhere else to free up the names.
