Andres Freund 6d7dc53500 Return implementation defined value if pg_$op_s$bit_overflow overflows.
Some older compilers otherwise sometimes complain about undefined
values, even though the return value should not be used in the
overflow case.  We assume that any decent compiler will optimize away
the unnecessary assignment in performance critical cases.

We do not want to restrain the returned value to a specific value,
e.g. 0 or the wrapped-around value, because some fast ways to
implement overflow detecting math do not easily allow for
that (e.g. msvc intrinsics).  As the function documentation already
documents the returned value in case of intrinsics to be
implementation defined, no documentation has to be updated.

Per complaint from Tom Lane and his buildfarm member prairiedog.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
