Forbid setting incorrect values for numeric fields

[Nick-S-2018]

Bug Description:

Now we convert incorrect values of numeric data types ( e.g., "a" or "" for the bigint field) , to 0. Instead, we should forbid such conversion and throw an appropriate error. But if a value can be correctly converted to number (e.g. "123") , conversion still must be done.

Alternatively, we could introduce some kind of option enabling/disabling such strict conversion which the user would be able to use to get more flexible behavior

@Nick-S-2018 pls improve the spec, e.g.:

• should string->numeric conversion still happen for ID?
• what about cases like "123"?

[Nick-S-2018]

I've updated the description to cover these details
