Only on warn on platforms where we don't have `#pragma push_macro/pop_macro`.

I noticed that the Windows STL headers have to do this dance with `new` (even though they do `(foo)(...)` for `min` and `max`). If we're going to need
to guard against a bunch of macros I would like to use a single approach.  Other than updating the `#if defined(min) || defined(max)` lines it's trivial to guard
against additional macros.

Also there are a lot of call sites and declarations for `min` and `max`.  I think this approach is less invasive and more consistent. We're obviously not going to
use `(foo)(...)` syntax everywhere, so lets use it nowhere.
