Add Number Schema

[joeyhoer]

I don't see a number option in the schema docs. It would be nice to have a number schema (perhaps with min/max limits) for user settings; I believe the current solution would be to either use a text field or a dropdown.

Example: I was considering adding an option to BigClock for "lightness" (effectively "brightness"; using the same color functions added here), so that lightness could be user configurable. Currently, there is a color value coded for "Dark Red", and I was thinking that it would be best to remove that value, and allow the user to select "lightness" independent of the color. (An even better option would be a more robust color picker schema, but a number schema could still be useful!)

PS I copied this ticket from tidbyt/pixlet#223. I'm not sure which repo schema update requests belong in, but this repo seems to be tracking a few.

@betterengineering This was closed, but I think it's relevant and related to #143 and #39. There may be workarounds with existing schema, but I think an improved schema would make for a better UI within the app and provide more flexible configurations.
