charN_t represent code units of different UTF encodings. Therefore the
values of 2 different charN_t objects do not represent the same
characters.
In order to avoid comparing apples and oranges, we add new warnings to
warn on:
- Implicit conversions
- Comparisons
- Other cases involving arithmetic conversions
We only produce the warning if we cannot establish the comparison would
be safe through constant evaluation.
The new `-Wimplicit-unicode-conversion` warning is enabled by default.
Note that this PR intentionally doesn;t touches char/wchar_t, but it
would be worth considering also warning on extending the new warnings to
these types (in a follow up)
Additionally most arithmetic operations on charN_t don't really make
sense (ie what does it mean to addition code units), so we could add
warnings for that.
