BREAKING(ffi/unstable): always return u64 as bigint (#23981)

The mixed `number | bigint` representation was useful optimization for
pointers. Now, pointers are represented as V8 externals. As part of the
FFI stabilization effort we want to make `bigint` the only
representation for `u64` and `i64`.

BigInt representation performance is almost on par with mixed
representation with the added benefit that its less confusing and users
don't need manual checks and conversions for doing operations on the
value.
