Auto-promote integer types to G_TYPE_INT64
The JSON RFC does not specify the size of the integer type, thus implicitly falling back to machine-size. This would all be fine and dandy if some demented Web Developer (and I use the term "developer" *very much* loosely) did not decide to use integers to store unique identifiers for objects; obviously, you can't have more than 2^32-1 status messages in a database with millions of users who update their status multiple times per day. Right, Twitter? Anyway, some languages do a type auto-promotion from Integer to Long, thus pushing the limit of allowed positive values -- until the next integer overflow, that is. C, and GLib, do not do that transparently for us so we need to: - always use gint64 when parsing a JSON data stream using JsonScanner - move all the Node, Object and Array APIs to gint64 - auto-promote G_TYPE_INT to G_TYPE_INT64 when setting a GValue manually - auto-promote and auto-demote G_TYPE_INT properties when (de)serializing GObjects. The GLib types used internally by JSON-GLib are, thus: integer -> G_TYPE_INT64 boolean -> G_TYPE_BOOLEAN float -> G_TYPE_DOUBLE string -> G_TYPE_STRING
