Currently, python Beam transforms will complain about type incompatibilities if you try to supply ints for floats/complexes or floats as complexes. It's not hard to work around this but it comes up fairly often and is a bit tedious to fix over and over when ints work fine in place of floats/complexes.
PEP484 states that ints should be compatible with floats/complexes and floats as complexes, so this change just updates our type check to allow for these special cases
