[PATCH] Serialize the floating point immediate machine operands.

[Alex L]

The updated patch below uses the 'parseConstantValue' function from the
AsmParser
to parse the floating point constants. This radically simplifies the
parsing of floating
point machine operands for the MI parser.
Also, the updated patch can now handle all the floating point types.

Cheers,
Alex
