FloatField values in generated Sql have no standard string representation

[gp.ciceri@…]

In FloatField class definition there's no value string representation to put the float into the database,

so rounding problems may occur: perhaps a simple helper method like this can help.

def get_db_prep_save(self, value):
        "Returns field's value prepared for saving into a database."
        if self.max_digits == None: self.max_digits = 12
        if self.decimal_places == None: self.decimal_places = 4
        fmt = "%%%s.%sf" % (self.max_digits, self.decimal_places)
        return fmt % value

Thanks for your patience

Rounding problems occur even with string formatting in python. Solution is decimal, but that's going around in enough other patches right now that I'm going to just close this one.
