Aaron Ballman 8cba72177d Implement literal suffixes for _BitInt
WG14 adopted N2775 (http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2775.pdf)
at our Feb 2022 meeting. This paper adds a literal suffix for
bit-precise types that automatically sizes the bit-precise type to be
the smallest possible legal _BitInt type that can represent the literal
value. The suffix chosen is wb (for a signed bit-precise type) which
can be combined with the u suffix (for an unsigned bit-precise type).

The preprocessor continues to operate as-if all integer types were
intmax_t/uintmax_t, including bit-precise integer types. It is a
constraint violation if the bit-precise literal is too large to fit
within that type in the context of the preprocessor (when still using
a pp-number preprocessing token), but it is not a constraint violation
in other circumstances. This allows you to make bit-precise integer
literals that are wider than what the preprocessor currently supports
in order to initialize variables, etc.

// C Language Family Front-end
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
