skipLeadingRows is long for external tables but integer for load jobs #1044

Description

@mziccard

I believe this changed recently.

The skipLeadingRows field takes a long value when creating an external table (see docs). Instead, skipLeadingRows in load jobs takes an integer value (see docs). Why this difference? Load jobs can take files up to 5TB so in principle there is the chance that users might want to skip more than Integer.MAX_INT rows.
