[Bug fortran/17175] set_exponent breaks with integer*8 exponent

Indeed, gfc_get_intrinsic_lib_fndecl only looks at the first argument of a
function. The question is, should we rather convert the second argument to
default integer type, or if we should actually implement library functions for
all integer kinds.

I think the former is preferable, as an out of range exponent will generate an
unspecified result, so there's nothing to be lost when converting from integer*8
to integer*4 (and giving an exponent > 2*32 is calling for trouble).
