serde_v8::from_v8 for BigInts unsupported through `deserialize_any`
Deserializing BigInts is currently not supported unless a specific type is requested (e.g. it's unsupported through
deserialize_any path: https://github.com/denoland/deno_core/blob/main/serde_v8/de.rs#L131). This means that, for example, an object containing a field with a BigInt value cannot be deserialized. I assume this is because it's unclear which rust type to map it to?
If so, are there any issues with the following mapping rules?
- If the BigInt < 0 and within i64 bounds, then deserialize as i64
- If the BigInt >= 0 and within u64 bounds, then deserialize as u64
- Otherwise throw an error3 replies
