The special-case code that parses infs and nans should be moved from
Objects/floatobject.c to Python/pystrtod.c, so that it's available
for other places that want to parse nans and infs.

The fallback version of PyOS_ascii_strtod needs to recognize nans and 
infinities in a platform-independent manner.
