Compile Time error :: `max(int64, int64)` returns a `number` not a `int64`

Description

I would imagine that many of the other compile time ready math expressions would suffer from a similar issue.

Duplicate of #8022

[tinkerer-red]

@rwkay The issue for this is a type difference, the issue for 8022 is an incorrect value.
Just to be clear, by duplicate I assume you mean the same fix, fixed both? and there wasn't miscommunication in the bug report? As I would imagine a quick glance both reports look identical.

It was the same fix - basically a mixed array (doubles and 64 bit integers) cannot be optimised by the compiler - the same fix for #8022 fixed this one.
