System.IntPtr and System.UIntPtr become numeric types, aliased by nint and nuint, and gain the built-in status of nint and nuint.

Add updates for numeric IntPtr
574dd9f 
Fixes dotnet#29625

The types `nint` and `nuint` are now aliases for `System.IntPtr` and `System.NuintPtr`, respectively.

These updates mostly involve removing text that described how the `nint` and `nuint` types behaved differently than the underlying types. They now behave the same.

Also, fix any warnings.
