Bug: it fails to satisfy the specification.

BEP 52 — The BitTorrent protocol specification version 2

Integers have no size limitation.

Currently, node-bencode allows decoded integer data to be corrupted. It should either use bigints or throw on a long integer input.

yourdecode("i9007199254740991e") === yourdecode("i9007199254740992e")
