Subject: minmax.h: simplify the variants of clamp()
Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2024 19:15:05 +0000
Always pass a 'type' through to __clamp_once(), pass '__auto_type' from
clamp() itself.
The expansion of __types_ok3() is reasonable so it isn't worth the added
complexity of avoiding it when a fixed type is used for all three values.
