proposal: encoding/json: add Number.Float32 and Number.Int32 methods

[evilsharpshoot]

Proposal Details

Goal
This proposal suggests adding Float32() and Int32() methods to the encoding/json.Number type to simplify access to 32-bit numeric values. These additions are fully backward-compatible and improve usability when decoding JSON into smaller numeric types.

n := json.Number("42")
i32 := n.Float32()

see #71497 , we're unlikely to make any more changes to encoding/json.
