CS2 Discussion: Output: CS Octal/Binary Literal as ES2015?

[Inve1951]

I'm bringing this up because nobody did so yet.

Numers in CS like 0b1010 and 0o31 currently compile to 0xa and 0x19 respectively.
Doing that conversion during compilation is no longer neccessary since those literals are now natively supported in JS.

Omitting that conversion and outputting as-is could slightly increase the ouput's readability or reveal intention.

Since that literally means less code: awesome! ;D
