refactor(users/sterni/nix): move generic number operation into num r/6477

We omit type checks for performance reasons in most places currently, so
the library grouping is important in showing people what to use for what
sort of input. The moved functions make sense to use with floats as
well, so we'll move them to the num library. Some of the remaining
functions could theoretically be adapted and moved, but aren't for now.
