ledger RPC command response, type of ledger_index field

[ckeshava]

In the response format of the ledger RPC command, I'd like to draw attention to the ledger_index field. The observed responses are of type string, however the documentation mentions Number as the expected type. It is possible that the type was updated in the APIv2 migration.

Please refer to the examples here: https://xrpl.org/resources/dev-tools/websocket-api-tool?server=wss%3A%2F%2Fs1.ripple.com%2F&req=%7B%20%20%22command%22%3A%20%22ledger%22%2C%0A%20%20%22ledger_index%22%3A%20%2292894212%22%2C%0A%20%20%22binary%22%3A%20true%0A%7D

This was fixed in XRPLF/rippled#4820 , but the old behaviour is retained in API v1 (since it would be a breaking change). Please select API v2.
