Subject: [PATCH 2/3] erts: Fix float_to_list(F, [{decimals,D}]).

Example symptom:
1> float_to_list(0.145, [{decimals,1}]).
"0.2"

There were two problems in sys_double_to_chars_fast

1. Most serious was adding 0.55555555 / (10^D) instead of 0.5 / (10^D)
   which imposed a 5.5% risk of a faulty rounding up.

2. Using fixpoint for frac_part which lost significant bits if F < 0.5
