5.3 work2 documentation for tonumber

["Liam Devine" <liamdevine@...>]

The documentation for tonumber in work2 [1] has not changed from 5.2[1]
in respects to when there is a base.
"When called with base, then e should be a string to be interpreted as
an integer numeral in that base."
For work2 this should have stated "must" instead of "should"
