libstdc++: Allow Lemire's algorithm to be used in more cases
This extends the fast path to also work when the URBG's range of possible values is not the entire range of its result_type. Previously, the slow path would be used for engines with a uint_fast32_t result type if that type is actually a typedef for uint64_t rather than uint32_t. After this change, the generator's result_type is not important, only the range of possible value that generator can produce. If the generator's range is exactly UINT64_MAX then the calculation will be done using 128-bit and 64-bit integers, and if the range is UINT32_MAX it will be done using 64-bit and 32-bit integers. In practice, this benefits most of the engines and engine adaptors defined in [rand.predef] on x86_64-linux and other 64-bit targets. This is because std::minstd_rand0 and std::mt19937 and others use uint_fast32_t, which is a typedef for uint64_t. The code now makes use of the recently-clarified requirement that the generator's min() and max() functions are usable in constant expressions (see LWG 2154). libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: * include/bits/uniform_int_dist.h (_Power_of_two): Add constexpr. (uniform_int_distribution::_S_nd): Add static_assert to ensure the wider type is twice as wide as the result type. (uniform_int_distribution::__generate_impl): Add static_assert and declare variables as constexpr where appropriate. (uniform_int_distribution:operator()): Likewise. Only consider the uniform random bit generator's range of possible results when deciding whether _S_nd can be used, not the __uctype type.
