BigInt package

Description (last modified by Martin Sjölund)

MSL contains constants >31-bit, and we could support them using either an arbitrary-size data-structure or simply 128-bit or something. This would reduce the need for some ad-hoc Integer to Real conversions that we perform today:

model M
  Integer i = 100000000000 * 100000000000;
end M;

Gives after type-checking:

class M
  Integer i = 1e+22;
end M;
