Array length/memory errors with the range operator

[deepilla]

The range operator doesn't do any checks on the size of the arrays that it creates. If you try to create an array larger than JavaScript can handle, e.g. [1..1e10], you get an Invalid array length error. Note that this is a JavaScript error rather than a JSONata error. Maybe JSONata could check for this case and handle it more gracefully.

Along similar lines, the array [1..1e9] is legal but my machine runs out of memory trying to evaluate it. I suspect that if memory were not an issue, the expression would still be prohibitively slow to run. Is it worth imposing an upper bound on range operator array size?
