simd_neg had an odd comment about overflow not being UB, without saying what the behavior is instead. Replace that by just saying this uses wrapping arithmetic, and add the same for add/sub/mul. div/rem are already documented to cause UB on div-by-zero and min-div-by-minus-one, and shl/shr cause UB on too large shift amounts.

Some changes occurred to the platform-builtins intrinsics. Make sure the
LLVM backend as well as portable-simd gets adapted for the changes.

gets adapted for the changes, if necessary.
