During the refactoring needed for lazy free, specifically the conversion
of t_hash from struct robj to plain SDS strings, HINCRBFLOAT was
accidentally moved away from long doubles to doubles for internal
processing of increments and formatting.
The diminished precision created more obvious artifacts in the way small
numbers are formatted once we convert from decimal number in radix 10 to
double and back to its string in radix 10.
By using more precision, we now have less surprising results at least
with small numbers like "1.23", exactly like in the previous versions of
Redis.
See issue #2846.

An user raised a question about a given behavior of PFCOUNT. Added a
test to show the behavior (union) is correct when most of the items are
in common.

Currently this feature is only accessible via DEBUG for testing, since
otherwise depending on the instance configuration a given script works
or is broken, which is against the Redis philosophy.

By calling redis.replicate_commands(), the scripting engine of Redis
switches to commands replication instead of replicating whole scripts.
This is useful when the script execution is costly but only results in a
few writes performed to the dataset.
Morover, in this mode, it is possible to call functions with side
effects freely, since the script execution does not need to be
deterministic: anyway we'll capture the outcome from the point of view
of changes to the dataset.
In this mode math.random() returns different sequences at every call.
If redis.replicate_commnads() is not called before any other write, the
command returns false and sticks to whole scripts replication instead.
