Thread: pgsql: Try to detect runtime unavailability of__builtin_mul_overflow(i

Try to detect runtime unavailability of __builtin_mul_overflow(int64).

On some systems the results of 64 bit __builtin_mul_overflow()
operations can be computed at compile time, but not at runtime. The
known cases are arm buildfar animals using clang where the runtime
operation is implemented in a unavailable function.

Try to avoid compile-time computation by using volatile arguments to
__builtin_mul_overflow(). In that case we hopefully will get a link
error when unavailable, similar to what buildfarm animals dangomushi
and gull are reporting.
