  This patch implements built-in trait for std::remove_pointer.

gcc/cp/ChangeLog:

	* cp-trait.def: Define __remove_pointer.
	* semantics.cc (finish_trait_type): Handle CPTK_REMOVE_POINTER.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* g++.dg/ext/has-builtin-1.C: Test existence of __remove_pointer.
	* g++.dg/ext/remove_pointer.C: New test.

Hi,

I conducted a benchmark for remove_pointer as well as is_object. Just
like the is_object benchmark, here is the benchmark code:

https://github.com/ken-matsui/gcc-benches/blob/main/remove_pointer_benchmark.cc

On my computer, using the gcc HEAD of this patch for a release build,
the patch with -DUSE_BUILTIN took 8.7% less time and used 4.3-4.9%
less memory on average compared to not using it. Although the
performance improvement was not as significant as with is_object, the
benchmark demonstrated that the compilation was consistently more
efficient.

Sincerely,
Ken Matsui

Just a quick update, the benchmark code link has been updated and can
now be accessed at
https://github.com/ken-matsui/gcc-benches/blob/main/remove_pointer.cc.
I have also created a report file which can be found at
https://github.com/ken-matsui/gcc-benches/blob/main/remove_pointer.md.

Thanks for the benchmark.  The improvement is lesser than I expected,
but that might be because the benchmark is "biased":

  template <std::size_t N, std::size_t Count = 256>
  struct Instantiator : Instantiator<N, Count - 1> {
      static_assert(!std::is_pointer_v<remove_pointer_t<Instantiator>>);
  };

This only invokes remove_pointer_t on the non-pointer type Instantiator,
and so the benchmark doesn't factor in the performance of the trait when
invoked on pointer types, and traits typically will have different
performance characteristics depending on the kind of type it's given.

To more holistically assess the real-world performance of the trait the
benchmark should also consider pointer types and maybe also cv-qualified
types (given that the original implementation is in terms of
__remove_cv_t and thus performance of the original implementation may be
sensitive to cv-qualification).  So we should probably uniformly
benchmark these classes of types, via doing e.g.:

  static_assert(!std::is_pointer_v<remove_pointer_t<Instantiator>>);
  static_assert(!std::is_pointer_v<remove_pointer_t<Instantiator*>>);
  static_assert(!std::is_pointer_v<remove_pointer_t<const Instantiator>>);
  static_assert(!std::is_pointer_v<remove_pointer_t<Instantiator* const>>);

(We could consider other kinds of types too, e.g. reference types and
integral types, but it seems clear based on the implementations being
benchmarked that performance won't be sensitive to reference-ness
or integral-ness.)

Maybe add a newline before the 'case' to visually separate it from the
previous 'case'?  LGTM otherwise, thanks!

Thank you for your review! I totally agree with your opinion that the
benchmark should have been exhaustive. I conducted a benchmark for
this new change:

https://github.com/ken-matsui/gcc-benches/blob/main/remove_pointer.md#tue-jun-20-030313-pm-pdt-2023

Time: -27.918%
Peak Memory Usage: -19.0755%
Total Memory Usage: -20.0199%

Will do! Thank you!
