I was being possibly over thorough - there is scope for some very careful constant folding.

The cvt versions rely on the runtime rounding mode, so constant folding may not match the same result (we could maybe just permit exact conversions?).

The cvtt versions should work but its not what I saw in some basic tests on godbolt with large values such as FLT_MAX. I'll see if we can improve the existing tests to see what is going on and make a decision on what we can safely support.
