[fpc-pascal] LongInt and LongWord types

[Marcelo Rocha]

Delphi's LongInt and LongWord are 32 bits on Windows, but 64 bits on
supported Posix platforms(
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Rio/en/Simple_Types_(Delphi)),
following the conventions from LP64/LLP64. FreePascal declares with the
same size for all platforms.

What's the best way to do portable code: using types clong and culong?

FreePascal could emit a warning when compiling a code with Longint/Longword
variables, targeting a Posix platform, with {$mode delphi}?
