/**
 * Multiply two integers of the same type, and return the result converted to
 * that type using wraparound semantics.  This function:
 *
 *   1) makes explicit the desire for and dependence upon wraparound semantics,
 *   2) provides wraparound semantics *safely* with no signed integer overflow
 *      that would have undefined behavior, and
 *   3) won't trip up {,un}signed-integer overflow sanitizers (see
 *      build/autoconf/sanitize.m4) at runtime.
 *
 * For N-bit unsigned integer types, this is equivalent to multiplying the two
 * numbers, then taking the result mod 2**N:
 *
 *   WrappingMultiply(uint32_t(42), uint32_t(17)) is 714 (714 mod 2**32);
 *   WrappingMultiply(uint8_t(16), uint8_t(24)) is 128 (384 mod 2**8);
 *   WrappingMultiply(uint16_t(3), uint16_t(32768)) is 32768 (98304 mod 2*16).
 *
 * Use this function for any unsigned multiplication that can wrap (instead of
 * normal C++ multiplication) to play nice with the sanitizers.  But it's
 * especially important to use it for uint16_t multiplication: in most compilers
 * for uint16_t*uint16_t some operand values will trigger signed integer
 * overflow with undefined behavior!  http://kqueue.org/blog/2013/09/17/cltq/
 * has the grody details.  Other than that one weird case, WrappingMultiply on
 * unsigned types is the same as C++ multiplication.
 *
 * For N-bit signed integer types, this is equivalent to multiplying the two
 * numbers wrapped to unsigned, taking the product mod 2**N, then wrapping that
 * number to the signed range:
 *
 *   WrappingMultiply(int16_t(-456), int16_t(123)) is 9448 ((-56088 mod 2**16) + 2**16);
 *   WrappingMultiply(int32_t(-7), int32_t(-9)) is 63 (63 mod 2**32);
 *   WrappingMultiply(int8_t(16), int8_t(24)) is -128 ((384 mod 2**8) - 2**8);
 *   WrappingMultiply(int8_t(16), int8_t(255)) is -16 ((4080 mod 2**8) - 2**8).
 *
 * There is no ready equivalent to this operation in C++, as applying C++
 * multiplication to signed integer types in ways that trigger overflow has
 * undefined behavior.  However, it's how multiplication *tends* to behave with
 * most compilers in most situations, even though it's emphatically not required
 * to do so.
