I don't think the front end knows what sizeof(gfc_offset) is on the
target. But rather than worry about teaching the frontend yet another
detail about the target, I'd suggest just using  INTEGER(8) for
offsets, whether the target has LFS support or not. Unless we claim to
support targets that don't support 8 byte integer types at all?
