Backport my_strntod() from 5.0

Change string->float conversion to delay division as long as possible.
This gives us more exact integer->float conversion for numbers of type '123.45E+02' (Bug #7740)




client/mysql.cc:
  Fix wront usage of charset (found during review of pushed code)
include/m_string.h:
  Backported my_strtod() from 5.0
mysql-test/mysql-test-run.sh:
  Run also mysql_client_test with --debug
mysql-test/r/ps_1general.result:
  Safety fix (if mysql_client_test.test fails)
mysql-test/r/type_float.result:
  More test
mysql-test/t/mysql_client_test.test:
  Comments for what to do if this test fails
mysql-test/t/ps_1general.test:
  Safety fix (if mysql_client_test.test fails)
mysql-test/t/type_float.test:
  More test to better test new strtod() function
  Test also bug #7740 (wrong comparsion between integer and float-in-integer-range)
