Instead of the proposed three type-specific macros, add one generic rte_add_overflow(a, b, res) macro, like rte_bit_test() [1] using "_Generic".

[1]: https://elixir.bootlin.com/dpdk/v24.11.1/source/lib/eal/include/rte_bitops.h#L130

You may still need the type-specific macros as internal helpers for the MSVC implementation.

Furthermore, a 64 bit variant might be useful.

PS: DPDK naming convention typically uses just "8"/"16"/"32" postfix to the function name, not "_u8"/"_u16"/"_u32".
