Add `jsonGetReal`

[rhinton]

I want to use JSON-for-VHDL for managing configuration information for a DSP-heavy design. That means I need to store and read real values. Please add a jsonGetReal function. Probably the fixed-point and/or floating-point packages already have the necessary numeric parsing code.

@rhinton what time frame do I have to add this feature?
Are you using it with latest Vivado, where string performance improved a lot?

I'm currently bound to the development of topics in EDA².

Some other interesting data type:

1. integer
2. real
3. real array

I see how I can plan it into my schedule. What's your timeline for such feature?

If it can put it in your schedule as soon as possible, then it's great! Currently I have a temporary solution of extracting the string type. If the API is updated, then I can update my project. 😁
