std/math.wrapping_* should be implemented as ordinary stdlib functions backed by paired .nca implementations.

These functions are needed for algorithms that intentionally require modulo arithmetic, such as PCG, hash functions, checksums, cryptographic bit-mixing, and other low-level numeric routines.

This should be separate from the compiler fix for normal NC arithmetic overflow.
