We need to specify which option we're going to pick from each set of options to determine our canonical Ion text representation that we will use for testing and to ser/de into by default.

I propose JSON compatibility where possible, meaning ',' will be the exclusive separator in Lists, S-Expressions, and Structures.

I propose that Floats be represented only as 'XeY' and Decimals be represented only as 'XdY', essentially specifying exclusive lowercasing of the 'e' and the 'd'.

I'll put some thought into how to resolve other multi-representations. Suggestions appreciated.

Related to #3 and #4.
