Decode a big-endian Uint8Array of any length into a BigInt. If starting from a hex value, consider using the BigInt constructor instead:
BigInt(`0x${hex}`) Copy
BigInt(`0x${hex}`)
The bytes parameter can be set to constrain the expected length (default: bin.length). This method throws if bin.length is not equal to bytes.
