Re: [heycam/webidl] [Clamp] and [EnforceRange] reduce the max value long long supports (#237)

The 2^53-1 comes from https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=24241

Is the question why the normal case doesn't take things mod 2^53 as well?  Mostly because that's a pretty nonsensical thing to do and is more datalossy than taking things mode 2^64.  The dataloss is not a problem in the enforcerange/clamp cases because those don't have silent dataloss at all, right?
