[issue16801] Preserve original representation for integers / floats in docstrings

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Your indeed cumbersome and overly specific process has almost nothing to do with what I proposed and gave two examples of. Please reread and understand msg178542 before you criticize it.

Class octint pythonically solves the octal mode display problem that started this issue, and in my opinion about as elegantly as possible.
