Use long int builtins for xtensa (esp) targets (#26170)

Browse Source 
Fixes #25200.

`xtensa-esp-elf-gcc` (the ESP-IDF toolchain for the Xtensa
ESP32/ESP32-S2/ESP32-S3) defines `int32_t` as `long int`, exactly like
`arm-none-eabi-gcc` and `riscv32-unknown-elf-gcc` do:

```console
$ xtensa-esp32s3-elf-gcc -dM -E -x c /dev/null | grep -E '__INT32_TYPE__|__SIZEOF_(INT|LONG)__|__xtensa__|__unix__'
#define __SIZEOF_INT__ 4
#define __SIZEOF_LONG__ 4
#define __xtensa__ 1
#define __INT32_TYPE__ long int
```

So with `--cpu:esp`, `NI`/`NI32` become `long int` while `nimAddInt`
still expands to `__builtin_sadd_overflow`, which expects `int*`:

```
error: passing argument 3 of '__builtin_sadd_overflow' from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
note: expected 'int *' but argument is of type 'NI32 *' {aka 'long int *'}
```

This is a warning on GCC 13 and below, but [a hard error since GCC
14](https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html#incompatible-pointer-types)
— the log in #25200 shows the build failing outright with the
`esp-15.1.0` toolchain.

This applies the same fix that #23835 (arm-none-eabi), #24553 (riscv32)
and #26121 (limiting arm to non-`__unix__`) already applied, now for
Xtensa. The `!defined(__unix__)` guard mirrors #26121: the bare-metal
ESP toolchain does not define `__unix__` (verified above), so it is
unaffected, while a hypothetical `xtensa-*-linux` target keeps the
current `int` behaviour rather than being switched blindly.

### Verification

Compiling Nim-generated C for `--cpu:esp --os:standalone` with
`xtensa-esp32s3-elf-gcc 12.2.0` and `-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types`
(to reproduce the GCC 14+ default):

| `lib/nimbase.h` | exit code | `incompatible pointer` diagnostics |
|---|---|---|
| devel | 1 | 1 |
| this PR | 0 | 0 |

No effect on any other target: the change is inside the `NIM_INTBITS ==
32` branch and is gated on `__xtensa__`.
