Debug formatting floating point number does not (always) include decimal separator

[sanmai-NL]

In order to keep optimal equivalence between a Debug formatted representation of values and Rust source code, it would be helpful if e.g. f64 values are formatted including their decimal separator by default. This avoids having to adjust a whole lot of f64 fields in some larger structure when e.q. writing an equivalence assertion of such a value based on earlier Debug output. Currently, the values are formatted as integers when they are representable as integers.

This seems to be the current behaviour as of 3e98f18. Are you sure you weren't using Display instead, or an older version of the compiler?

Thanks! This has been fixed as of #46831 and will be released in Rust 1.24.0.

@varkor: Yeah, I was using an older version of the compiler (different toolchain).
