base: Fix scientific number conversion in base/str
Previously converting scientific numbers to non-floating
numbers would yield incorrect results, because the
underlying conversion was using stoll and stoull, which
do not deal with scientific numbers properly. Therefore,
converting to_number("8.234e+08", val) would yield
val=8, which is blatantly wrong (expected 823400000).
This was fixed by searching for "e" within the string to
be converted.
To make sure all double and scientific number conversions
are correct, a few extra tests were added.
