[issue44954] Bug in float.fromhex

Fixed in the main branch and in 3.9; 3.10 is very close to release, so the backport PR for 3.10 may have to wait for 3.10.1 (which wouldn't really be a problem, given that this bug has apparently lain unnoticed since Python 2.7). That's Pablo's call, of course.

@Pedro Thanks again for the report! Just out of curiosity, how did you manage to find this?
