These constraints are not independent, e.g. an int that lies in [0, 3] in signed domain must also lie in [0, 3] in unsigned domain and have all bits but the last 2 being unset. As a result, we must canonicalize the constraints (tighten the constraints so that they are optimal) before constructing a `TypeInt/Long` instance.

I think all the tests have passed, I will integrate this PR.

Thank you a lot for reviewing this PR. Especially, thanks @eme64 for your rigorous reviews and valuable suggestions, it helps a lot in shaping this PR in a better manner.
