Description of the Issue
I'm trying to find out how to deal with a file that has more than 1000 versions when using --json. When running a box files:versions --json command, it only returns 1000 total, even if the file itself has more than that. We have some files with as many as 13000+ versions, and I'd like to figure out how to access them via powershell (mainly so I can delete them).
I don't know if there is a way to offset or paginate the returned array. If this is not possible, is there a way to access properties like foreach ($v in $version) {$v.created_at} without doing the --json | convertfrom-json thing?

Steps to Reproduce
$version = box files:versions FILEIDHEREWITHMORETHAN1KVERSIONS --json | ConvertFrom-Json
$version.count always equals 1000 (when --json is not used, it returns the correct amount)
