Sized literals in bytecode

This enables sized literals in GHCi bytecode. I hope it works on both 32 bit and 64 bit.

@luite I can easily test this once !7502 (closed) is landed (the patch is finished now).

Hmm some failures on x86_64 linux that I didn't see on aarch64 Darwin last week. I'll try a build on my Linux system to see what's going on

@luite I think the tests just fail because of your change to allow optimisation with interpreter backend. I think the best thing to do is to remove the hack commit which allow this. Then I can add a test with !7502 (closed)

Now that !7502 (closed) has landed, not having this patch can provoke a panic, as I’ve just reported in #22372 (closed).
