Negative number modulus *big.Int behaves differently to int

[wader]

$ go run cmd/gojq/main.go -n '2147483647 as $maxHalfInt | -1 % ($maxHalfInt, $maxHalfInt+1)'
-1
2147483647

Im not that familiar with modulus math but the comment for *big.Int Mod might be a clue:

Mod sets z to the modulus x%y for y != 0 and returns z. If y == 0, a division-by-zero run-time panic occurs. Mod implements Euclidean modulus (unlike Go); see DivMod for more details.

Fixed, thanks.
