target-tricore: split up suov32 into suov32_pos and suov32_neg
suov checks unsigned for an overflow and an underflow, after some arithmetic
operations and saturates the result to either max_uint32 or 0. So far we
handled this by expanding to the next bigger data type and compare whether
the result is > max_uint32 or < 0.
However this approach can fail for an 32 bit multiplication, if both operands of
the multiplication are 0x80000000. This sets the sign bit of the 64 bit integer
and would result in a false saturation to 0.
Since unsigned operations, e.g add, sub, mul always result in either a positive
or negative overflow, we split the functions for suov32 up into two functions
(suov32_pos, suov32_neg) for each case.
