I was preparing to commit this for beta1 last week, and I realized
that I've changed my tune. With all the recent backports of overflow
checks, I think I need to be reaching for them by default, especially
in a non-performance-critical path.

v2 rewrites that part with a checked multiplication, which removes any
need for a static_assert complication.

This has been completely rewritten now; see what you think.

Thanks!
