Implement the other easy thing: repr() of a float now uses %.17g, 

while str() uses %.12g as before.

/* Precisions used by repr() and str(), respectively.
The repr() precision (17 significant decimal digits) is the minimal number
that is guaranteed to have enough precision so that if the number is read
back in the exact same binary value is recreated. This is true for IEEE
floating point by design, and also happens to work for all other modern
hardware.
The str() precision is chosen so that in most cases, the rounding noise
created by various operations is suppressed, while giving plenty of
precision for practical use.
