Allow up to 48 bits for storage of 'int' types #19

Closed klange closed 2 years ago

klange commented 2 years ago

Currently, int values are restricted to 32 bits. This is problematic for dealing with unsigned 32-bit values. Ultimately, I want to introduce arbitrary precision integers ('big ints'), but as a stop-gap measure we have an addition 16 bits available in our value type.
