Description

Like structure offset will propagate over all immediates. Suggesting tC command for that. Currently is possible as a part of enum, but would be handy even without enum.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the implementation of existing type commands (e.g., `t` family) in radare2, understand how constants are currently handled in enums, and design a new `tC` command that defines a constant similar to structure offsets. Look at the codebase for command registration and propagation logic.
