lib: Add strongly typed 64bit int_sqrt
There is no option to perform 64bit integer sqrt on 32bit platform. Added stronger typed int_sqrt64 enables the 64bit calculations to be performed on 32bit platforms. Using same algorithm as int_sqrt() with strong typing provides enough precision also on 32bit platforms, but it sacrifices some performance. In case values are smaller than ULONG_MAX the standard int_sqrt is used for calculation to maximize the performance due to more native calculations.
