epan: Refactor floating point display types
Remove the redundant BASE_FLOAT field display type. The name
BASE_FLOAT is meaningless and the value aliased to BASE_NONE.
Require BASE_NONE instead of BASE_FLOAT (corresponding to
the printf() %g format).
Add new float display types using BASE_DEC, BASE_HEX and BASE_EXP
corresponfing to %f, %a and %e respectively.
Add support for BASE_CUSTOM with floats.
