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
