Rework the conversion of floats to decimal strings so it aligns precisely
with the conversion of strings to floats in parsenum.c. This is to avoid
rendering 1eX as 9.99999eX-1 etc. This is achieved by removing the power-
of-10 tables and using pow() to compute the exponent directly, and that's
done efficiently by first estimating the power-of-10 exponent from the
power-of-2 exponent in the floating-point representation.
Code size is reduced by roughly 100 to 200 bytes by this commit.

This adds the Python files in the tests/ directory to be formatted with
./tools/codeformat.py. The basics/ subdirectory is excluded for now so we
aren't changing too much at once.
In a few places `# fmt: off`/`# fmt: on` was used where the code had
special formatting for readability or where the test was actually testing
the specific formatting.
This patch fixes 2 things when printing a floating-point number that
requires rounding up of the mantissa:
- retain the correct precision; eg 0.99 becomes 1.0, not 1.00
- if the exponent goes from -1 to 0 then render it as +0, not -0
C's printf will pad nan/inf differently to CPython. Our implementation
originally conformed to C, now it conforms to CPython's way.
Tests for this are also added in this patch.
