Build failure: Compilation errors in hb_beamr.c

[bc1Matin]

When attempting to compile the project using rebar3 compile on Erlang 27.3.4.11, the build fails due to strict type mismatches in native/hb_beamr/hb_beamr.c when calling functions from the ei.h library (erl_interface).

Environment

*OS: Linux arch
*Erlang Version: 27.3.4.11 (installed via asdf)
*Rebar Version: 3.27.0 (installed via asdf)
*GCC version: 16.1.1
