This patch attempts to implement P1272R4 (except for the std::bit_cast
changes in there which seem quite unrelated to this and will need to be
fixed on the compiler side).
While at least for GCC __builtin_bswap{16,32,64,128} should work fine
in constant expressions, I wonder about other compilers, so I'm using
a fallback implementation for constexpr evaluation always.
If you think that is unnecessary, I can drop the
__cpp_if_consteval >= 202106L &&
if !consteval
{
and
}
and reformat.
The fallback implementation is an attempt to make it work even for integral
types that don't have number of bytes divisible by 2 or when __CHAR_BIT__
is e.g. 16.
