At the moment Neva only has int and float, should we support Go's numbers?
int int8 int16 int32 int64
uint uint8 uint16 uint32 uint64
Upsides
Better performance (and easy to implement)
Downsides
User will have to think about number format just like in Go
This and #28 are both highly coupled with the "lower-level" programming in Neva. We need to be very careful, because message-passing overhead can wipe out all the benefits of having a specific numeric types.
