`C-x 8 ^ 1'--`C-x 8 ^ 3' are supported, but not the other seven numbers;
this should be extended. Maybe superscripts of + and - could also be
included --- they are included in some other input methods in Emacs
(e.g., `compose').
Also, it would be nice to have the same characters for subscripts (with
`C-x 8 _'). For other subscripts and superscripts, an input method
would be more appropriate (though general sub- and superscripts seem to
not be supported by any input method built into Emacs). But I think
extending the `C-x 8' map to support number super- and subscripts is
reasonable.

I added those, but note that the results might look somewhat ugly if
your default font doesn't support the U+20XX codepoints, and you need
a superscript that mixes both Latin digits and the newer 20XX ones.
