Allow CSFLE in Ruby to be decrypted using Ruby types

What problem are you trying to solve?

Focus on the what and why of the need you have, not the how you'd like it solved.

Larger integers will be decrypted as BSON::Int64 as opposed to just a Ruby Integer

What would you like to see happen?

Describe the desired outcome or enhancement.

Allow the encrypted client to decrypt these values using Ruby primitives

Why is this important to you or your team?

Explain how the request adds value or solves a business need.

Prevent users from having to manually cast or convert values (which can be error prone)

What steps, if any, are you taking today to manage this problem?
