We already have [u]intptr_type_node -- but only in c-family/, thus
ubsan.c/asan.c cannot use those nodes.  I can create both
TI_SIGNED_POINTER_SIZED_TYPE and TI_UNSIGNED_POINTER_SIZED_TYPE,
but we currently need only the latter...

Unsigned.  But yeah, one can't tell by just looking at the name.

I see.
