#5506: LLVM AST : needs an LlvmType ctor to represent vectors so that LLVM can
generate SIMD instructions

Comment(by dterei):
OK so I'll accept for now but I have two concerns:
- right now its useless. Yes its for doing vector support but really if
you want to do vector support you should be sending me more of a complete
patch, not a tiny piece of it. With tools like git its very easy to do out
of line dev work.
- I'm not really sure if returning the word width for the llvmWidth
function makes sense, but I'm not sure what does make sense right now.
