comparedf: No difference detected if column changes from integer to numeric

[mpettis]

I don't know if this is as-intended or not, but when a column changes value from 0L to 1, it changes type and value, and comparedf() doesn't alert me to the change.

library(arsenal)
library(tibble)

#;; Note, x is integer in first tibble, a dbl in the second one.
comparedf(tibble(x=0L), tibble(x=1))
#> Compare Object
#> 
#> Function Call: 
#> comparedf(x = tibble(x = 0L), y = tibble(x = 1))
#> 
#> Shared: 1 non-by variables and 1 observations.
#> Not shared: 0 variables and 0 observations.
#> 
#> Differences found in 0/0 variables compared.
#> 0 variables compared have non-identical attributes.

Maybe try this?

> comparedf(tibble(x=0L), tibble(x=1), int.as.num = TRUE)
Compare Object

Function Call: 
comparedf(x = tibble(x = 0L), y = tibble(x = 1), int.as.num = TRUE)

Shared: 1 non-by variables and 1 observations.
Not shared: 0 variables and 0 observations.

Differences found in 1/1 variables compared.
0 variables compared have non-identical attributes.
