…arithmetic since `of_int` returns an `int`, this has not enough precision (31 bits) when the compiler is 32-bit, e.g. on JS (Motoko Playground) In long term we should get rid of `of_int`.

Since
NumType.of_intreturns anint, this has not enough precision (just 31 bits) whenthe compiler is 32-bit, e.g. on JS (Motoko Playground)
This patch switches to using
Big_intinstead.Fixes #2671.
