Attachment: Bug 1595594 - Add support for typed arrays to console.table. r=Honza.

In order to render a table, we first check that console.table is
called with data that can be displayed in a table. Until now, we
were missing all the typed arrays.
This revealed some smaller issues:

• BigInt64Array were not marked as typed arrays on the server.
• Generating the repeatId for a message containing BigInts would
  throw because BigInts can't be serialized.

We add test cases for all the typed array, and we take this opportunity
to add a test case to ensure object insides table cells can be expanded.
