Improving _Generic in C2y

The transition from C11 to C2y introduces improvements to the '_Generic' feature, a previously criticized mechanism for type-based behavior in C. Unlike prior cycles, the current development phase focuses on incorporating both bug fixes and new features to maintain momentum. Specific notable changes include better type matching without relying on convoluted pointer tricks, thanks to new capabilities like matching directly on types, introduced in C23. These advancements facilitate cleaner, more intuitive code and have been implemented in compilers such as Clang and GCC.
