We've finally got requestId passed on every WebRequest event, but we pass an integer while in Chrome string (which appears still to be a monotonously increment integer as weel, just stringified) gets passed. I can see the rationale behind it: if lots and lots (frankly, too many for a lifetime-long browser session) of requests are initiated, we might exhaust the 54 bits available for precise integer representation and start skipping ids, at some point in the next century or so. Hence, bonus point if you manage to make this integer potentially unlimited (i.e. a big integer), but I'd consider this fixed if we just achieve chrome compatibility by stringifying the id as it's fetched for the first time, i.e. in the RequestId.create() object.

Sorry for the noise, v4 failed some eslint tests which I didn't realize until after the review.
