This PR adds a new page to the docs with info on setting the size of
Sizedtypes for use in ghost code, including how to set the size ofusize/isize. There was a small amount of documentation onusize/isizein the the Integers part of the tutorial, so to make it easier to keep the documentation in sync I moved this to the new file. I'm not sure whether it would be better to have this information in the tutorial or the reference, though, so I'm happy to move some/all of the documentation back to the tutorial if folks think that would be a better location for it.
