strconv: revert ParseFloat/ParseComplex error on incorrect bitSize

This is a partial revert of https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/248219
because we found that a non-trivial amount of code erroneously calls
ParseFloat(s, 10) or even ParseFloat(s, 0) and expects it to work --
before that change was merged, ParseFloat accepted a bitSize of
anything other than 32 or 64 to mean 64 (and ParseComplex was similar).

So revert that behavior to avoid breaking people's code, and add tests
for this.

I may add a vet check to flag ParseFloat(s, not_32_or_64) in a later
change.

See #42297 for more details.
