The [cmath.syn] p1 wording about additional overloads sufficient to handle any arithmetic types also applies to std::lerp. This adds a new overload of std::lerp that does the required promotions to support arguments of arbitrary arithmetic types. A new __promoted_t alias template is added, which the C++17 function templates std::hypot and std::lerp can use to avoid instantiating the __promote_3 class template.
