Title: Parse float QUAL values in exponent syntax

Fixes GitHub issue #43. Note that any QUAL value that cannot be parsed as
int or float is stored as None.

Also note that explicit string searching for certain characters first might be faster. I don't think a regular expression for recognizing float values would be faster and I do think this patch is a more Pythonic solution.
