resolveVerbEndpointInts mirrors the resolved u64 endpoint ints onto the
verb object itself as BigInt (verb.sourceInt/targetInt) for the graph legs'
own params. The live verb path's delete legs then reused that same object
as the metadata-index crossing — and the seam's metadata is JSON-safe by
contract (a native provider serializes it; u64 as Number corrupts above
2^53), so JSON.stringify threw and the whole transaction aborted. Found by
the first joint pair gate; four downstream suites red from one crossing.
The crossing now routes through a JSON-safe view that drops BigInt-valued
top-level keys — endpoint ints ride their own op params on the graph legs,
exactly as designed, and never the metadata crossing. Applied at the
retraction helper (cascade + unrelate + transact mirrors) and
updateRelation's remove leg.
Pinned by driving the exact shape (relate resolves ints, remove cascades
the same object) through a provider shim enforcing the JSON contract —
red-proved against the unfixed path (the joint gate's verbatim error),
green with the fix.
