Fix bug with eql etc. on NaNs
Fix a bug where eql, sxhash-eql, memql, and make-hash-table were not consistent on NaNs. Likewise for equal, sxhash-equal, member, and make-hash-table. Some of these functions ignored NaN significands, whereas others treated them as significant. It's more logical to treat significands as significant, and this typically makes eql a bit more efficient on floats, with just one integer comparison instead of one to three floating-point comparisons. * doc/lispref/numbers.texi (Float Basics): Document that NaNs are never numerically equal, but might be eql. * src/fns.c (WORDS_PER_DOUBLE): Move to top level of this file. (union double_and_words): Now named, and at the top level of this file. (same_float): New function. (Fmemql, Feql, internal_equal, cmpfn_eql): Use it, so that the corresponding functions treat NaNs consistently. (sxhash_float): Simplify based on above-mentioned changes. * test/src/fns-tests.el (fns-tests-equality-nan): New test.
