Damien George b75cb8392b py/parsenum: Fix parsing of floats that are close to subnormal.
Prior to this patch, a float literal that was close to subnormal would
have a loss of precision when parsed.  The worst case was something like
float('10000000000000000000e-326') which returned 0.0.

# test parsing of floats, requiring double-precision
# very large integer part with a very negative exponent should cancel out

print(float('9' * 400 + 'e-400'))

print(float('.' + '9' * 400))
