object_to_vim: Fix buffer/window/tabpage conversion on BE systems

Since data.integer is a different (larger) integer type than
data.{buffer,window,tabpage}, we cannot abuse the union by using
data.integer to access the value for all 4 types.  Instead, remove the
{buffer,window,tabpage} members and always use the integer member.

In order to accomodate this, perform distinct validation and coercion
between the Integer type and Buffer/Window/Tabpage types in
object_to_vim, msgpack_rpc helpers, and gendispatch.lua.
