The graphson payload that represent int64 and int32 typed values from the database, is a map that contains a string representation of the type, and a separate value field.
The existing code for reading an int64 requires that this string representation of the type is g:Int42.
This change relaxes that requirement to tolerate also the string being g:Int64.
This use case was discovered by a client wishing to de-serialize such a payload into a structure with an int64 field. The value had been created in the database using a neptune query that set an integer property with an integer constant value, where it is impossible to force it to be made as an int64.
