minmax: add a few more MIN_T/MAX_T users
Commit 3a7e02c040b1 ("minmax: avoid overly complicated constant
expressions in VM code") added the simpler MIN_T/MAX_T macros in order
to avoid some excessive expansion from the rather complicated regular
min/max macros.
The complexity of those macros stems from two issues:
(a) trying to use them in situations that require a C constant
expression (in static initializers and for array sizes)
(b) the type sanity checking
and MIN_T/MAX_T avoids both of these issues.
Now, in the whole (long) discussion about all this, it was pointed out
that the whole type sanity checking is entirely unnecessary for
min_t/max_t which get a fixed type that the comparison is done in.
But that still leaves min_t/max_t unnecessarily complicated due to
worries about the C constant expression case.
However, it turns out that there really aren't very many cases that use
min_t/max_t for this, and we can just force-convert those.
This does exactly that.
Which in turn will then allow for much simpler implementations of
min_t()/max_t(). All the usual "macros in all upper case will evaluate
the arguments multiple times" rules apply.
We should do all the same things for the regular min/max() vs MIN/MAX()
cases, but that has the added complexity of various drivers defining
their own local versions of MIN/MAX, so that needs another level of
fixes first.
