minmax: allow min()/max()/clamp() if the arguments have the same signedness.

From: David Laight <David.Laight@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d03eba99f5bf7cbc6e2fdde3b6fa36954ad58e09 upstream.

The type-check in min()/max() is there to stop unexpected results if a
negative value gets converted to a large unsigned value.  However it also
rejects 'unsigned int' v 'unsigned long' compares which are common and
never problematc.

Replace the 'same type' check with a 'same signedness' check.

The new test isn't itself a compile time error, so use static_assert() to
report the error and give a meaningful error message.

Due to the way builtin_choose_expr() works detecting the error in the
'non-constant' side (where static_assert() can be used) also detects
errors when the arguments are constant.
