printing of floating point numbers and integers in Maxima



nformat doesn't seem like the right place to be formatting numbers.  nformat
is a structure-to-structure map, not a structure-to-string map. I think
makestring (in displa.lisp) and msize-atom (in grind.lisp) should call a new
common number-formatting function.
