 Same as for size_t, etc: They don't exist. Those are not separate types, just typedefs to some other types. E.g. uint16_t could be typedef'ed to unsigned int.

Clearly, they're not quite as fully supported as short, int etc; they are usually just aliases. But that needn't stop them being shown on such a chart.
