Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to use Bend to perform some parallel computations for a research paper, however, the values used in it do not fit into a 24-bit integer, therefore I would need at least 32-bit integers, at most - 64-bits.
Describe the solution you'd like
Support of 32 or 64 bit integers in Bend/HVM. Due to untyped nature of the language, maybe this can be configured per program via a flag.
Describe alternatives you've considered
OpenCL or manual CUDA code
