safeOp.mulPow2

Equivalent to left * pow(2, exp), but faster and works with a wider range of inputs. This is a safer alternative to left << exp that is still very fast.

Note that (conceptually) rounding occurs after the *, meaning that mulPow2(left, -exp) is equivalent to divPow2(left, exp).

5 assert(IntFlags.local.clear() == IntFlag.posOver);
