Updated C2N and CharToNum procedures

I've posted a short article on how to use the built-in CharToNum procedure
that is on all AS/400 systems, rather than trying to use the user-written
C2N or my CharToNum procedures.

Basically, you use the following prototypes, and bind to QC2LE binding
directory with BNDDIR(QC2LE)
The article gives more information and context, but here's the code in case
you don't need the text:

     **  RPG IV Prototypes for C runtime library Math functions.
     **  If NUMVAL is Pkd(7,2), then:
     **   NumVal = atof('1234.56') // result is NumVal=1234.56
     **   NumVal = atoi('1234') // result is NumVal=1234
     D atof            PR             8F   Extproc('atof')
     D  dValue                         *   VALUE Options(*STRING)
     D atoi            PR            10i 0 Extproc('atoi')
     D  iValue                         *   VALUE Options(*STRING)
