Returns an array with both a numeric and a int represented as Integer objects or Float objects.
This is achieved by converting numeric to an Integer or a Float.
A TypeError is raised if the numeric is not an Integer or a Float type.
Example
(0x3FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF+1).coerce(42) #=> [42, 4611686018427387904]
