In analogy to the strconv.FormatFloat and fmt.Printf functions using the 'g' format, (_Float).Text and (_Float).Format should support the 'g' format with a negative precision (== smallest number of digits necessary to identify the floating-point value uniquely).

The implementation is in (*Float).Text.

Once fixed, the work-around (to avoid a panic) in (*Float).Format can be removed.
