[issue4799] handling inf/nan in '%f'
New submission from Cournapeau David da...@ar.media.kyoto-u.ac.jp:
On windows, with python 2.6, s = '%s' % float('inf') is 'inf', but s =
'%f' % float('inf') is equal to '1.#INF'.
This patch fixes the inconsistency, by using the code from floatobject.f
format_float into stringobject.c formatfloat. I think it would be better
to use the same underlying implementations for both functions, but it is
not so easy, because format_float cannot fail (return void), whereas
formatfloat can (return error code).
