Make the type for storing a Number be a template parameter.
Then we'd lose the ability to distinguish between integers and
floating point in the same lexer instantiation, which is vital
for certain input files to avoid losing precision for 64-bit
integers. The only solution would be to use Decimal, but that
doesn't exist yet and would be slow.
Why can't you specify many types? You should be able to query the
range/precision of each type?
