(0.999).toPrecision(1) returns incorrect result.

[Garth Minette]

In Safari 2.0.4 and also in the latest nightly webkit build, the javascript statement:
    (0.999).toPrecision(1);
will return the incorrect result "0.10" instead of the correct result which would be "1.0"

Assertion failed: (n < intPow10(p)), function callAsFunction, file JavaScriptCore/kjs/number_object.cpp, line 371.

Patch to fix Number.toPrecision rounding

This is my first WebKit patch; started with something relatively small and easy.  I welcome any and all input.

The problem seemed to be that when attempting to determine the best value for n, the property n<intPow10(p) was broken and thus strange results were returned.  I hope the way I correct this is acceptable.

I haven't really reviewed the patch, but noticed a bugzilla.opendarwin.org URL in the test - please change it to bugs.webkit.org.
