128-bit integers

[ahopkins]

Is there any intent to support serialization of large integers beyond 64 bits?

>>> import orjson, json
>>> json.dumps({"q": 111111111111111111111})
'{"q": 111111111111111111111}'
>>> orjson.dumps({"q": 111111111111111111111})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: Integer exceeds 64-bit range

I don't have any plans. If someone wants to implement this, it needs to roundtrip (serialize and deserialize consistently) and care needs to be taken deserializing integers greater than the 64-bit range written using exponential notation that would become floats right now. What is correct and how do other libraries handle that? Will it be a change in behavior?
