  The other half of Issue #1580: use short float repr where possible.
  
  Addresses the float -> string conversion, using David Gay's code which
  was added in Mark Dickinson's checkin r71663.
  
  Also addresses these, which are intertwined with the short repr
  changes:
  
  - Issue #5772: format(1e100, '<') produces '1e+100', not '1.0e+100'
  - Issue #5515: 'n' formatting with commas no longer works poorly
      with leading zeros.
  - PEP 378 Format Specifier for Thousands Separator: implemented
      for floats.
