Research direction

The issue asks for to_signed and to_unsigned as specified in P3643R4, so start by reading that paper for the exact signatures and semantics. The issue says xvec already handles these conversions explicitly, so search the repository for that existing code to see where the new functions should live. Done means both functions exist with behaviour matching the paper and tests cover its examples.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
