[w3c/IndexedDB] Allow BigInts as IndexedDB keys (#231)

Design decisions:
- BigInts compare greater than Number and less than everything else
- No type coercion between BigInt and Number; they are simply
  distinct, unrelated keys, even if mathematically equal
- No BigInt autoIncrement support--53 bits should be enough for anyone

BigInts and BigInt wrappers are proposed to be made serializable, and
therefore available as IndexedDB values, in
https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/3480
