[RFC] man7/system_data_types.7: Document [unsigned] __int128

[Alejandro Colomar <colomar.6.4.3@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm documenting the system data types in the man-pages,
and I was writing now about these types.

I'm showing below both the rendered output and the source I have right now.

Would you add anything to it?

And I have some questions:

Is 'signed __int128' a valid thing,
and if so is it completely equivalent to '__int128'?

Is the GCC version correct?

There's no implementation where 'long long' is 128 bits yet, right?

Thanks,

Alex

Rendered output:
[[
__int128
      A signed integer type of a fixed width of exactly 128 bits.

      According to GNU, it is supported only for targets which have an
      integer mode wide enough to hold 128 bits.

      Bugs: It is not possible to express an integer constant of  type
      __int128  in  implementations  where  long long is less than 128
      bits wide.

      Conforming to: GCC 4.6.0 and later.

      Notes: This type is available without including any header.

      See also the intmax_t, intN_t and  unsigned  __int128  types  in
