`serialized_source_guild` in Guild Template returns the incorrect type for the `system_channel_id` field

[kagadar]

Description

Using https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild-template#get-guild-template the guild template object, https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild-template#guild-template-resource, has a field serialized_source_guild, which is a guild object: https://discord.com/developers/docs/resources/guild#guild-object

This object has a field system_channel_id of type snowflake

According to https://discord.com/developers/docs/reference#snowflakes, the API should return these as a string, however the value returned by the API is a number.

Steps to Reproduce

New template that exhibits this behaviour: https://discord.com/api/v9/guilds/templates/5TA7DUe7aAEy

Expected Behavior

The system_channel_id should be a string.

Current Behavior

The system_channel_id is a number.

Just to add to this, the initial report only specifies one snowflake field in the serialized_source_guild as impacted, but it seems like most, if not all, snowflake fields are returning numbers instead of strings.

This behavior is intentional, but it's true that the docs are incorrect here.
