gcc warns a few thousand times about the isdigit() shadow:

include/linux/ctype.h:26:19: warning: declaration of 'isdigit' shadows a built-in function [-Wshadow]

As there is already a compiler builtin, just use that, and make
it clear we do that by defining a macro.  Unfortunately, clang
does not have the isdigit() builtin, so this has to be conditional.

Don't all functions defined here shadow builtins in GCC?  Why is
`isdigit` unique?  Is that because it's a `static inline` definition
vs a function like macro?  If that's the case, what's the harm in
converting it to a function like macro if that silences the warning?

TODO(Nick): finish the Clang patch that implements that.

#ifdef

only use `defined` explicitly when there's more than one condition
being checked with logical `&&` or `||`.

> +#if __has_builtin(__builtin_isdigit)

GCC only recently gained the `__has_builtin` macro (I filed the bug);
I would like to see something akin to
include/linux/compiler_attributes.h but using `__has_builtin` like
compiler_attributes.h uses `__has_attribute`.  That way we avoid
spaghetti like this throughout the kernel.

It was originally a macro but got changed to an inline function in
1204c77f9b6a ("include/linux/ctype.h: make isdigit() table lookupless"),
apparently in order to avoid evaluating the argument more than once.

I suppose we could make it a statement expression with a local
variable like

#define isdigit(c) ({ __auto_type __c = (c);  '0' <= __c && __c <= '9'; })

Ok. I've added a 'has_builtin()' macro (without underscores)
in linux/compiler.h in version 2. I don't use it anywhere else
in my current series, so there should be no dependencies.
