feat: implement bin and int64 templates for Uint8Array and bigint generation in TemplateJson

[Copilot]

This PR adds support for generating binary data and 64-bit integers using new template types in TemplateJson.

New Template Types

BinTemplate

The BinTemplate generates Uint8Array data with configurable length and octet value ranges:

type BinTemplate = [
  type: 'bin',
  min?: number,  // min length (default: 0)
  max?: number,  // max length (default: 5)
  omin?: number, // min octet value (default: 0)
  omax?: number, // max octet value (default: 255)
];

Int64Template

The Int64Template generates JavaScript bigint numbers with configurable ranges:

type Int64Template = [
  type: 'int64',
  min?: bigint,  // min value (default: -9223372036854775808)
  max?: bigint,  // max value (default: 9223372036854775807)
];

Usage Examples

import { TemplateJson } from '@jsonjoy.com/json-random';

// Binary data generation
const binaryData = TemplateJson.gen('bin');
// Result: Uint8Array(3) [ 192, 128, 3 ]

const fixedBinary = TemplateJson.gen(['bin', 32, 32]);
// Result: Uint8Array(32) with values 0-255

// 64-bit integer generation
const bigInt = TemplateJson.gen('int64');
// Result: 1313807020292337664n

const rangedBigInt = TemplateJson.gen(['int64', BigInt(0), BigInt(100)]);
// Result: bigint between 0 and 100

// Integration with complex structures
const complex = TemplateJson.gen([
  'obj',
  [
    ['id', 'int64'],
    ['data', ['bin', 16, 16]],
    ['timestamp', ['int64', BigInt('1000000000000'), BigInt('9999999999999')]]
  ]
]);

Implementation Details

• Added int64 utility function for bigint random generation
• Updated TemplateNode union type and TemplateShorthand to include both 'bin' and 'int64'
• Implemented generateBin and generateInt64 methods with maxNodes limit support
• Full integration with existing template system (works in arrays, objects, maps, and 'or' templates)
• ES6 compatibility using BigInt() constructor instead of literals

Testing

Added comprehensive test coverage for both template types including:

• Basic functionality with shorthand and full parameter specification
• Edge cases (empty arrays, single bytes, custom ranges, large bigint values)
• Integration with other template types
• Respect for maxNodes limits
• Complex nested structures

All existing tests continue to pass, ensuring backward compatibility.

Fixes #6.

• Also introduce int64 template, which is similar to int template, but generates JavaScript bigint numbers.
• When done make sure to run yarn format:fix and fix yarn lint issues.

Implemented the int64 template that generates JavaScript bigint numbers. The implementation includes:

• Full template support with shorthand 'int64' and range specification ['int64', BigInt(min), BigInt(max)]
• Defaults to 64-bit signed integer range (-9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807)
• Integration with all existing template features (objects, arrays, maps, 'or' templates)
• Comprehensive test coverage
• yarn format:fix and yarn lint have been run successfully

The implementation follows the same pattern as the existing int template but generates bigint values instead of regular numbers. Commit: 95a3924

Test fails with:

Fixed the BigInt serialization issue in Jest tests. The problem was that Jest worker processes can't serialize BigInt values when communicating test results between processes. Changed the test assertions to convert BigInt values to strings using .toString() instead of direct .toBe() comparisons. All tests now pass successfully. Commit: 628f6fd
