I'm ok adding this now, so long as there are comments in the code
easily found indicating this is non-portable DFDL feature.
E.g., put keyword "PORTABILITY" in the comments so that we can search it easily.
The idea is in the future, should portability become a bigger deal
than now, we can add some
Will do! By extension, this means we'll be deprecating/removing the
allowBigIntegerBits tunable and the DeprecatedBigIntegerBits WarnID, correct?

Hmmm. I had entirely forgotten we had such tunable and warnID. So we
were letting people turn this on/off before because we allowed it, but
since DFDL
doesn't formally allow it we had deprecated the use of bits for
bigInteger types, but let people continue to use it via the allow
property.
