Add data type: numeric

Currently, the data type "number" enters only positive integers. It would be helpful to have a true numeric data type that not only allows for integers AND decimals, but can be negative.

    Integer (number type) does not allow 0 as a value. Imports produce errors. Solution to delete all number table entries in order to change the data type to text and then import all values is not a viable solution. We should be able to convert the data type or accept a value of 0 without errors.
