Any plans to support larger than 53-bit integers?

[johnnysprinkles]

Integers larger than 53 bits are valid JSON, but when parsed by JSON.parse they get truncated down to 53 bits and lose a few least significant digits. We have 64 bit integers coming from our backend and use https://www.npmjs.com/package/json-bigint to parse, any chance of adding an option for replace the built-in JSON.parse with a custom function, or just a boolean option for using json-bigint?

Should just need to provide an option defaulted to JSON.parse. Then you can bring your own JSONBigInt parser.

parser = opts.parser || JSON.parse;

Adding a parser option does make the reviver option redundant since it could be accomplished with:

{
    parser : body => JSON.parse(body, reviver)
}

Right on, thanks!
