Can we avoid two types and use a generic `Atomic<T>` and then implement
on `Atomic<i32>` and `Atomic<i64>` instead? Like the recent
generic NonZero in Rust standard library or the atomic crate
(https://docs.rs/atomic/).

I think this is better for ergonomics. The impl do need some extra
casting though.

Best,
Gary
