Summary: Rewrite string_to_numeric

Initial Comment:
This function wasn't very good.

- Source string is not always terminated.

- Had many buf overflow (copying string, converting to 

binary and other).

- Input not checked...

- Allocate a linked list just to store some digit. Use short 

int for counter (on some machine like Intel give poor 

performance)

-Do not test overflow or strange character

Perhaps this version need some testing on big-endian 

machine (it use always little endian ordering... correct?)



Also I made a test for this conversion.
