This was an attempt to move saturating_arithmetic.zig to the "passing for stage2" section, which did not pan out due to the discovery of 2 prerequisite items that need to be done, but I did make a bug fix along the way of the calculation of max/min integers. This commit also simplifies the saturating arithmetic behavior tests to depend on less of the zig language that is not related to saturating arithmetic.

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
