Bug description: FILTER_VALIDATE_INT limited to system's signed integer size

Description:
------------
FILTER_VALIDATE_INT should validate anything that normal people consider
an integer as such, rather than being limited to what my computer can
store in 32 bits.

Reproduce code:
---------------
filter_var('2147483648', FILTER_VALIDATE_INT);

Expected result:
----------------
returns '2147483648'

Actual result:
--------------
returns FALSE

New Comment:

It returns a PHP integer which is limited to 32bits.

If you like to get a string containing a big integer, you can use the
sanitize rule.

Once PHP has 64bits integer support, it will be available in filter as
well.

Not a bug > bogus.
