[issue1580] Use shorter float repr when possible

[Tim Peters]

Tim Peters added the comment:

Thanks, Amaury!  That settles an issue raised earlier:  MS's
string<->double routines still don't do correct rounding, and "aren't
even   close" (the specific incorrect rounding showed here isn't a hard
almost-exactly-half-way case).
