Name: Kernel-nice.831
Ancestors: Kernel-nice.830

1) Fix awfull bug in NumberParser when reading a number with fraction part
(the trailing digits of the fraction might be skipped when there's many of them because of incorrect update of lastNonZero position)

This made this test fail:
self assert: (Float readFrom: (((1<&lt;1075) reciprocal + (1&lt;&lt;1400) reciprocal) printShowingDecimalPlaces: 2000)) = Float fmin.

I just wanted to check NumberParser w.r.t. a former bug of dtoa, but it failed for different reasons http://www.exploringbinary.com/gays-strtod-returns-zero-for-inputs-just-above-2-1075/

2) Classify some as yet unclassified (or miss-classified)

=============================================

Name: KernelTests-nice.259
Ancestors: KernelTests-fbs.258

Add a non regression test for recently discovered NumberParser error (truncating the last digits due to incorrect position of last non zero digit).
