Class NonLexicalLiteral

This class is used when a literal is parsed, and it's value is an invalid lexical form for it's datatype. The spec defines value with invalid lexical form are still valid terms, and as such we can not error immediately. This class makes sure that the typedValue will remain undefined, and the category 'nonlexical'. This way, only when operators apply to the 'nonlexical' category, they will keep working, otherwise they will throw a type error. This seems to match the spec, except maybe for functions that accept non-lexical values for their datatype.
