Clarify type inference of floating-point literals

+Like integer literals, a floating-point literal may be followed by a
+suffix, so long as the pre-suffix part does not end with `U+002E` (`.`).
+The suffix forcibly sets the type of the literal. There are two valid
_floating-point suffixes_, `f32` and `f64` (the 32-bit and 64-bit floating point
types), which explicitly determine the type of the literal.
+The type of an _unsuffixed_ floating-point literal is determined by type
+inference. If a floating-point type can be _uniquely_ determined from the
+surrounding program context, the unsuffixed floating-point literal has that type.
+If the program context underconstrains the type, it defaults to double-precision `f64`;
+if the program context overconstrains the type, it is considered a static type
+error.

Examples of floating-point literals of various forms:
