Instead of a target-independent __int128 keyword, there would be a set 
(possibly empty) of __intN keywords, determined by a target hook.  
Everything handling __int128 would be updated to work with a 
target-determined set of types instead.

Preferably, the number of such keywords would be arbitrary (so I suppose 
there would be a single RID_INTN for them) - that seems cleaner than the 
system for address space keywords with a fixed block from RID_ADDR_SPACE_0 
to RID_ADDR_SPACE_15.
