implicit int overflow slightly beyond 32-bit max

[Agapurnis]

When going one above the max positive 32-bit integer, it overflows and becomes negative.

Example

Verbose for clarity; separators and type annotations don't change the outcome.

// Correct; this is a safe value.
let value: int = 2_147_483_647

// Incorrect; this gets transpiled to `-2_147_483_648`. Ideally, this should warn or error.
let value: int = 2_147_483_648

// Correct; this errors for not being a valid 32-bit integer.
let value: int = 2_147_483_649
