Add primitive floats to 'vm_compute'
* This commit add float instructions to the VM, their encoding in bytecode and the interpretation of primitive float values after the reduction. * The flag '-std=c99' could be added to the C compiler flags to ensure that float computation strictly follows the norm (ie. i387 80-bits format is not used as an optimization). Actually, we use '-fexcess-precision=standard' instead of '-std=c99' because the latter would disable GNU asm used in the VM.
