           Summary: Lost items not marked returned when floating-point

Floating point math and a strict "if amountoutstand=0" result in things not
getting marked as returned when they should. I've had a hard time figuring out
exactly when this will go wrong, so I've got some very specific steps to
recreate. 

To test:
- set MarkLostItemsAsReturned to never mark items returned
- turn on Fines log
- find/create a patron with no outstanding fees or fines
- manually apply 8 overdue charges of $4.10
- create an item with a replacement cost of 6.99
- check item out to patron
- mark item lost, generating 6.99 lost fee for patron
- pay off entire balance using the Pay Amount button
- confirm patron no longer owes any fees, but item has not been marked as
returned when fee was paid off
- check fines log, see that the accountline for this lost fee recorded a
payment of "6.98999999999999" and a new amountoutstanding of
"7.105427357601e-15"

While we round these values to 4 decimal places in accountlines, that rounding
happens *after* Koha checks if amountoutstanding=0 when deciding whether or not
to mark the lost item returned.
