Use a 32-bit limb size ("like a digit, but bigger") for floating-point conversion. This cuts the number of multiplications per constant by a factor of four. This means supporting fractional-limb-sized numbers, so while we're at it, add support for 8-bit floating point numbers (apparently used in graphics and in audio compression applications.)
