Saturation

This module provides basic integer saturation arithmetic procedures: add, sub, mul, and div.
These procedures accept any of the built-in integer types and adjust the output accordingly, e.g., adding an u8 with an s16 results in an s16.
All procedures return a flag signaling if the result is saturated and, additionally, the division procedure returns the remainder.
Branch-free procedures are included for the x64 architecture. These may be used by setting the PREFER_BRANCH_FREE_CODE module argument, or by setting prefer_branch_free_code on each function call. These should speed things up, specially when using signed values. Some benchmarks are included on the tests file.

TUI
