Oops, I had meant the non-primed ops should support promotion. But
tbh, I have mixed feelings about promotion.

I haven't required bitint promotion myself, but having statically
typed numeric vars, where the type of the vars is chosen by Clojure
and it isn't obvious what that type is, seems potentially confusing.

It is the issue of loop initialisers fixing the types of the loop
variable slot that I'm more bothered about though.
