This is how things normally start. Someone else might want to continue this
approach because it is already there.

Do you mean it would apply to all implementations? What I am missing here is
why it is required to be in the headers? Is this because it needs to be inlined
or is it because the compiler must see `__builtin_elementwise_sqrt` with the
surrounding code where it is called from?
