If we used unsigned long as position type, we could adress images with width > 2GB.
It may only be relevant for specific hardware but nice to have anyway.

Research direction
The issue names POS_TYPE and long2/long4 but no files or tests. Start by locating the POS_TYPE definition and every use of these types, then determine how position values and image dimensions are represented. Done means the project can address images wider than 2GB without breaking existing hardware or position handling.
