Summary: change float to t_float in Pd 'extra'

Initial Comment:
0001-change-float-to-t_float-in-Pd-extra.patch converts instances of 'float' to 't_float' in all classes of vanilla Pd's 'extra'. Also, a few constants and literals are defined with more decimals, and some float suffixes removed. The patch is intended for Pd-043.1test5. 

Type 't_float' is already used in most of pd core code. The changes in the 'extra' classes would make them compliant with the core in this sense.

Message:
These changes would complete the t_float/t_sample clean up that happened
with the core back in 0.42 (I think).  I think it should be included in
0.43 if possible.

Katya, how can we see what those differences are?

Message:
Accompanying the patch file, I've produced unit test patches. The reference
was pd-043.1 vanilla release. The tests indicate slightly altered output
for some of the classes, probably due to more precise constants and removal
of float suffixes. See attached 'unittests-pdextras.zip'.
