feat(core): SwiftForth input number conversion, DPL and NH

Punctuation (`,` `.` `+` `/` `:` and an embedded `-`) after the leftmost
digit now forces double-cell conversion, so `12.34`, `1,234`, `12:30:45`
and `2026-08-06` convert as doubles. Only a trailing `.` worked before,
and `1.5` was an "unknown word" error.

The punctuation is a double-cell marker, not a fractional point, so the
scale has to travel separately: DPL carries the digit count right of the
rightmost punctuation character (negative when there was none), which is
what lets `<# #>` place the point back on output. NH carries the high
cell a single-cell conversion drops, so a token that overflows a cell is
still recoverable as a double.

parse_number and parse_double_number duplicated the prefix and sign
handling and could not share a DPL counter, so they collapse into one
parse_numeric_literal that reports which kind it converted.

Verified token-for-token against sf64. One deliberate divergence: WAFER
keeps accepting a sign before a base prefix (`-$FF`), which sf64 rejects.
