Yonik Seeley updated LUCENE-2937:
---------------------------------
Attachment: LUCENE-2937.patch
Here's a patch - the fix to SmallFloat turned out easier than I thought, and
since we are working with the exponent and mantissa together, doesn't slow down
the code at all (the less-than is just changed to a less-than-or-equals).
I also re-ran TestSmallFloat.testAllFloats() to both verify that SmallFloat
matches the original floatToByte after that was also fixed, and verified that
no positive float maps to byte #0
