Provide overflow safe integer math inline functions.

It's not easy to get signed integer overflow checks correct and
fast. Therefore abstract the necessary infrastructure into a common
header providing addition, subtraction and multiplication for 16, 32,
64 bit signed integers.

The new macros aren't yet used, but a followup commit will convert
several open coded overflow checks.
