Simplify things by storing integer values only as int64_t's internally, and
omit the range check during parsing since we already have the checks when
accessing the value. There is no longer a json_type_int64, only json_type_int.
Fix some problems with parsing 0 and -0 values, and add a couple of tests.
Fix some minor compile issues on HPUX environments.
