5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit d03eba99f5bf7cbc6e2fdde3b6fa36954ad58e09 ]
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.
