Subject: [PATCH] Enlarge Bignum type from 1152 to 1280 bits.

This is necessary for decimal-to-float code (in a later commit) to handle
inputs such as 4.9406564584124654e-324 (the smallest subnormal f64).
According to the benchmarks for flt2dec::dragon, this does not
affect performance measurably. It probably uses slightly more stack
space though.
