Removes Float.Epsilon and Double.Epsilon
Float.Epsilon and Double.Epsilon contain the wrong value. Epsilon
should be an upper bound on the relative error due to rounding
errors in floating point arithmetic, i.e. it is 1/2 ULP (unit in
the last position) which is 2^(-24) for Float and 2^(-53) for Double.
This was discussed in detail in https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-3791
and it was decided to deprecate Epsilon for 2.9 and to remove it for 2.10
and to reintroduce it with the correct value for 2.11.
