Formally, I take this to mean we should choose one type, eg DECIMAL,
but that would probably not match people assuming that literal
without decimal points are integral literals.
We could consider a middle ground where literals without decimal
point with 18 or less digits are BIGINT, that longer literals are
DECIMAL, and that literals with decimal point are DECIMAL.
On a related note, I just noticed that exact numeric literals with
more than 19 digits have a subtype that is equal to the length of the
literal (digits + decimal point).
That's a bug :-) Right now working on it.
