This commit makes it easier to use PyStan with numpy integer types.
Numpy integers will be silently converted to Python ints. There
is no loss of precision, risk of overflow, etc.
Note that this adds support in PyStan only for numpy integer types.
Floats are more complicated because Python floats are not necessarily
compatible with numpy floats (e.g., np.float128).
