[racket] Numbers with dimensions

That's a cool language!
Unfortunately time is running short and I don't think I'll do something
close to that (and there is actually little chance that I'll use this
package myself, so I'm not really committed to it).
But I think it's already quite usable.
And anyone who wants to contribute or even take it over is welcome.
