Add support for runtime number precision config

Add cjson.encode_number_precision(). Reducing the number precision from
14 to 3 can increase performance up to 50% with number heavy
conversions.

+Number precision
+----------------
+
+  precision = cjson.encode_number_precision([precision])
+  -- "precision" must be between 1 and 14 (inclusive)
+
+By default CJSON will use up to 14 digits for precision when
+converting a number to text.
+
+Reducing number precision to 3 can improve performance of number
+heavy conversions by up to 50%.
