  The new __dmr type that is being added as a possible future PowerPC instruction
set bumps into a structure field size issue.  The size of the __dmr type is 1024 bits.
The precision field in tree_type_common is currently 10 bits, so if you store
1,024 into field, you get a 0 back.  When you get 0 in the precision field, the
ccp pass passes this 0 to sext_hwi in hwint.h.  That function in turn generates
a shift that is equal to the host wide int bit size, which is undefined as
machine dependent for shifting in C/C++.

      int shift = HOST_BITS_PER_WIDE_INT - prec;
      return ((HOST_WIDE_INT) ((unsigned HOST_WIDE_INT) src << shift)) >> shift;

It turns out the x86_64 where I first did my tests returns the original input
before the two shifts, while the PowerPC always returns 0.  In the ccp pass, the
original input is -1, and so it worked.  When I did the runs on the PowerPC, the
result was 0, which ultimately led to the failure.

In addition, once the precision field is larger, it will help PR C/102989 (C2x
_BigInt) as well as the implementation of the SET_TYPE_VECTOR_SUBPARTS macro.

I bootstraped various PowerPC compilers (power10 LE, power9 LE, power8 BE)
along with an x86_64 build.  There were no regressions.  My proposed patches
for the __dmr type now run fine.  Can I install this into the master branch for
GCC 13?

	PR middle-end/108623
	* hwint.h (sext_hwi): Add assertion against precision 0.
	* tree-core.h (tree_type_common): Bump up precision field to 16 bits.
	Align bit fields > 1 bit to at least an 8-bit boundary.

"is being added" means this feature is already in GCC 13?

... because since we're in stage4 this should fix a regression or at least a
bug that's like ice-on-valid or wrong-code?

Definitely OK for stage1.

Thanks,
Richard.
