Hello,

When converting an RDF object with a number exceeding Integer.MAX_VALUE such as:

<https://example.com/data/> <https://example.com/field/contentSize> "6972682403840"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#integer>

To an JSON-LD object using the useNativeTypes option, the resulting json object will be:

[
  {
    "@id": "https://example.com/data/",
    "https://example.com/field//contentSize": [
      {
        "@value": "6972682403840"
      }
    ]
  }
]

Where the @value for contentSize is mapped to a string and not to a member.
Would it be ok to change this part and change the Integer for a Long ?
Or are there any consequence that I am missing ?

I can take care of the PR if needed.

Thanks :)

   There is some discussion about elaborate on handling of JSON builtin types integer and double. The gist of it seems to be that, depending on the computer architecture you use, the range of long cannot always be 64bit (say on a 32bit cpu), even if xsd:long is defined to be of 64bit range. I am not deep into that discussion - maybe I don't have a proper understanding and you/others can dig and point to arguments to allow what you propose without breaking the specs.
   So atm I think this is a feature, not a bug. What dou you think?
