Remove `Array8`, `Array16` and `Array32` types

Open Kmeakin opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

  • Removes the Array8, Array16 and Array32 types and their corresponding functions, leaving only Array64.
  • Added <from>_extend_<to> and <from>_truncate_<to> for all integer types
  • ~~Implicitly insert extension functions during coercion. This allows using shorter integers (eg parsed from input) to operate on Array64 without hassle~~

Removed implicit extension because it could silently change the result of expressions (eg (u16_extend_u64 x * u16_extend_u64 y) != u16_extend_u64 (x * y))
