New issue 3875 by [hidden email]: Merge minor NumberParser  
refactorings from Squeak
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3875

There are three changed methods:
1) using peekSignIsMinus gives a chance to subclasses to parse a leading +
2) using ifNil: is faster than isNil ifTrue: (with current Compiler)
3) skip: -1 in an error case so as to insert the error message at the right  
place
