Define char16_t, char32_t consistently with uint_least16_t, uint_least32_t (bug 17979).
As noted in bug 17979 (and as I noted earlier in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00647.html>), uchar.h has gratuitously complicated code to determine the types for char16_t and char32_t, and to reject including that header for pre-C11 compilers not defining __CHAR16_TYPE__ and __CHAR32_TYPE__. Since those types are always required to match uint_least16_t and uint_least32_t, which glibc knows how to define without reference to such predefined macros, it's safe just to define those types the same as the *least* types are defined in stdint.h, so allowing the header to work with (for example) GCC 4.3. This patch implements that. bits/types.h is made to define __int_leastN_t and __uint_leastN_t so the logic for those types can stay in a single place, and stdint.h is made to use those __*_t to define the public *_t types. uchar.h is then made to use __uint_least16_t and __uint_least32_t to define char16_t and char32_t, so simplifying the logic there. A new test is added that verifies the types chosen for char16_t and char32_t do indeed match the types the compiler uses for u"" and U"" string literals. Tested for x86_64. (I have not tested with any of the older compilers for which this would actually make a difference to whether you can include uchar.h.) [BZ #17979] * posix/bits/types.h (__int_least8_t): New typedef.
