    libstdc++: Avoid overflow in ranges::advance(i, n, bound)
    
    When (bound - i) or n is the most negative value of its type, the
    negative of the value will overflow. Instead of abs(n) >= abs(bound - i)
    use n >= (bound - i) when positive and n <= (bound - i) when negative.
    The function has a precondition that they must have the same sign, so
    this works correctly. The precondition check can be moved into the else
    branch, and simplified.
    
    The standard requires calling ranges::advance(i, bound) even if i==bound
    is already true, which is technically observable, but that's pointless.
    We can just return n in that case. Similarly, for i!=bound but n==0 we
    are supposed to call ranges::advance(i, n), but that's pointless. An LWG
    issue to allow omitting the pointless calls is expected to be filed.
    
    libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
    
            * include/bits/ranges_base.h (ranges::advance): Avoid signed
            overflow. Do nothing if already equal to desired result.
            * testsuite/24_iterators/range_operations/advance_overflow.cc:
            New test.
