Bug #26469 Falcon: searches fail if decimal(6,6) column and index exists

Description:
I create a table with a decimal(6,6) indexed column.
I insert ... 0.000001.
I search for 0.000001.
Nothing is found.

This doesn't happen with a decimal(5,5) column.
This doesn't happen with an unindexed column.

How to repeat:
mysql> create table t27 (s1 decimal(6,6), key(s1)) engine=falcon;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)

mysql> insert into t27 values      (0.000001);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)

mysql> select * from t27 where s1 = 0.000001;
Empty set (0.00 sec)

Verified as described. Added test case falcon_bug_26469.test and pushed into mysql-5.1-falcon tree.

BigInt and Value where using different algorithms to scale double
number resulting in a low bit error.  They now use the same code.

Passes now:
