bigint support

[oscartbeaumont]

It is not supported by JSON. Should I look into something like Superjson but for Rust?

Support for bigint would be nice, especially when paired with https://github.com/Brendonovich/prisma-client-rust which has a need for i64 due to Prisma's BigInt type.

See Brendonovich/prisma-client-rust#266

Would using strings for serialization and then post-processing the parsed string values be an option?

@beeb sorry completely missed your comment.

I think that would be the way to go but doing it in an automated fashion is a bit challenging with all the ideas I have had so far.

You can manually encode to string and decode to BigInt and that's what we are doing for Spacedrive.
