[PATCH v3 0/4] btf: support ints larger than 128 bits

[Sean Young <sean@mess.org>]

clang supports arbitrary length ints using the _ExtInt extension. This
can be useful to hold very large values, e.g. 256 bit or 512 bit types.

Larger types (e.g. 1024 bits) are possible but I am unaware of a use
case for these.

This requires the _ExtInt extension enabled in clang, which is under
review.
