This is a continuation of #372.

I think the table we have in nativecall is enough, but maybe not. In fact, I see that types that you can use in nativecall signatures are not identical to what you can use with variables, so I guess I'm missing something.

What do you think should be done? Document every possible type?

FWIW the CaR grant branch that'll be merged after next release (2018-05-19) adds a "Numerics" language page that does mention native types.

Deletes nativeInt

This file actually did not have anything, causing more confusion than
benefit, as indicated by @jnthn in #1534. The native types are right
now described in nativecall, but they will be moved somewhere else, as
per #1512.

Also changes redirection to the new page that includes all these types.

First attempt at documenting nativetypes

I have moved the table to this page and split it in two, eliminating
nonspec types. It will clarify what you can use in native call (those
declared with nativesize) and which ones you can't. Refs #1512.
