#7045: the compiler and the library functions should read literals in the same
way

{{{
main = print (1.10 :: Rational)
}}}
is legal whereas
{{{
main = print (read "1.10" :: Rational)
}}}
fails at runtime with "Prelude.read: no parse"
The same applies to "1E10", but the e-notation should be rejected in both
cases (see #7044)
