The existing `init(bitPattern x: UIntN)` are still present on the concrete
types in the prototype. There’s a new init at the Protocol level that handles
the fully generic case:
/// Creates in instance of `Self` from `source` by sign-extending it
/// indefinitely and then truncating to fit `Self`.
init<T : Integer>(extendingOrTruncating source: T)
