[emacs-berlin] raise/decrease numbers in region

Hi Andreas, Peter,

So I guess the question is whether to contribute to `evil-numbers`
or whether to add a new package `ar-add-to-number`.

In my experience, contributing to existing packages is almost always
better.  Unless, of course, there are huge obstacles to overcome.


Regards,
Volker
