Add precise_float_parsing setting for float parsing methods

Add precise_float_parsing setting to switch float parsing methods (fast/precise). #52791 (Andrey Zvonov).
Added the precise_float_parsing setting to allow switching between fast and precise floating-point number parsing methods.

Why it matters

This feature addresses the trade-off between performance and accuracy in parsing floating-point numbers. Users can choose fast parsing for better performance or precise parsing for higher accuracy, depending on their application requirements.

How to use it

Enable or disable precise float parsing by setting precise_float_parsing to true or false in the configuration or query settings.
