This takes previous IEEE-754 single precision float implementation, and
converts it to fully portable parametrizable implementation using C99
functions like signbit(), isnan(), isinf(). As long as those functions
are available (they can be defined in adhoc manner of course), and
compiler can perform standard arithmetic and comparison operations on a
float type, this implementation will work with any underlying float type
(including types whose mantissa is larger than available intergral integer
type).
This allows using (almost) the same code for printing floats everywhere,
removes the dependency on sprintf and uses just snprintf and
applies an msvc-specific fix for snprintf in a single place so
nan/inf are now printed correctly.
In particular, numbers which are less than 1.0 but which
round up to 1.0.
This also makes those numbers which round up to 1.0 to
print with e+00 rather than e-00 for those formats which
print exponents.
Addresses issue #1178.
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.
Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
This adds support for almost everything (the comma isn't currently
supported).
The "unspecified" type with floats also doesn't behave exactly like
python.
Tested under unix with float and double
Spot tested on stmhal
