The latest version writes types that contain non standard numbers

[DavidZidar]

I just tried the v3.29.0 preview in my other issue and discovered that when I write the updated types they now contain native number types that do not exist in standard TypeScript, like float32 and int.

This means that TypeScript can't validate the types properly and I get warnings such as these when I try:

types-dnscontrol.d.ts:764:28 - error TS2304: Cannot find name 'uint32'.

764 declare function LOC(deg1: uint32, min1: uint32, sec1: float32, deg2: uint32, min2: uint32, sec2: float32, altitude: uint32, size: float32, horizontal_precision: float32, vertical_precision: float32): DomainModifier;

The only number type that should be used is number.

I did a quick look in the repository and found the dnscontrol.d.ts-file and it seems these changes were made in PR #2174.

Yep, JS/TS only has number types, cc @systemcrash

OK - I'm fine with 'number' types only - if that fixes problems. Those are generated from the docs, during the go generate step. How does one handle this?

Write 'number' in the preamble --- blah --- and then write what they actually are further in the doc?
