problems for binary distributions of Python in situations
where the build machine has SSE2 but the target machine
does not.

Therefore, don't enable SSE2 instructions automatically on x86.

string <-> float conversion routines to make round(x, n) correctly
rounded for floats x, so that it always agrees with format(x, '.<n>f').

Also fix some other round nuisances, like round(123.456, 1-2**31) giving
an integer rather than a float.

Addresses the float -> string conversion, using David Gay's code which
was added in Mark Dickinson's checkin r71663.

Also addresses these, which are intertwined with the short repr
changes:

- Issue #5772: format(1e100, '<') produces '1e+100', not '1.0e+100'
- Issue #5515: 'n' formatting with commas no longer works poorly
    with leading zeros.
- PEP 378 Format Specifier for Thousands Separator: implemented
    for floats.
