Array length/memory errors with the range operator #240
Description
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?
