Note: this does replace some more 32 bit multiplications with slightly more expensive 64 bit multiplications.

What does wideMathType() do?

Essentially this PR changes "255" to "wideMathType(255)", I'm wondering is this the same as writing "255.0f" or maybe "255L" ?

255ULL for ESP8266 and 255.0f otherwise

Looks like someone tried to avoid fixed point math?

the way it is implemented is quite an elegant way to support float AND fixed point math.
