Support LuaJIT number notations (floating point, number suffixes)

[rdw-software]

See JohnnyMorganz/StyLua#621 :)

Example:

local num = 0x1p-1026
num = 0x1.5p-3

These are supported in LuaJIT and in fact used in its own Lua modules, e.g. here. Trying to format them results in a parser error:

More information about the extension:

tonumber() etc. use builtin string to number conversion

All string-to-number conversions consistently convert integer and floating-point inputs in decimal and hexadecimal on all platforms. strtod() is not used anymore, which avoids numerous problems with poor C library implementations. The builtin conversion function provides full precision according to the IEEE-754 standard, it works independently of the current locale and it supports hex floating-point numbers (e.g. 0x1.5p-3).

Can you copy and paste the issue details here as well?

[rdw-software]

Sure. Done!

Should probably also support LL and ULL number suffixes (looks like its case insensitive), and complex numbers 12.5i

Fixed in #258

Thank you!
