Style fixes for floating-point doc.
* commands.texi, customize.texi, display.texi, elisp.texi, files.texi: * frames.texi, hash.texi, internals.texi, keymaps.texi, lists.texi: * minibuf.texi, nonascii.texi, numbers.texi, objects.texi, os.texi: * processes.texi, streams.texi, strings.texi, text.texi: * variables.texi, windows.texi: Hyphenate "floating-point" iff it precedes a noun. Reword to avoid nouns and hyphenation when that's easy. Prefer "integer" to "integer number" and "is floating point" to "is a floating point number". Prefer "@minus{}" to "-" when it's a minus.
