minmax: sanity check constant bounds when clamping

The clamp family of functions only makes sense if hi>=lo.  If hi and lo
are compile-time constants, then raise a build error.  Doing so has
already caught buggy code.  This also introduces the infrastructure to
improve the clamping function in subsequent commits.
