Reduce error in sexp_read_float_tail (from Taylor R Campbell)

scale*10 is computed exactly until scale exceeds 2^54/10; in
contrast, scale*0.1 may not be computed exactly, and fl(0.1) is not
even 0.1.

WARNING: This change is not complete -- it does nothing to prevent
overflow with very long strings of digits after the decimal point.
