C API type mismatch in ArrayType initializer

C++ API use uint64_t and C API uses unsigned and thus gets truncated when trying to create larger ArrayTypes

Please excuse my ignorance: is it as simple as changing unsigned to uint64_t in Core.h and Core.cpp?

No, that would be an ABI break. Instead LLVMArrayType2 with the new type would have to be added.
