Description

Summary*
I noticed that the standard library can't work with numbers larger than 32 bytes, and the code bigint doesn't work because it uses types u56 and u112. So I adapted the code to blocks of length u32, added a few new methods, and made it generic.
Additional Context
An example of use can be found in the tests. In the generic type, you need to specify the number of blocks that the BigUint type will contain (that is, 4 times more bytes).
