I refactored this string builder from one fmt.Sprintf() into strings.Join() to preserve test output (but have the ability to insert the optional ULP line in the middle)

Off hand (I haven’t tested it yet, or had my coffee :-), I’m not sure if this is accurate. [123, -2] and [1234, -3] should compare equal within 1 ULP, but would fail here since their exponents differ.

Hey @rdingwall, apparently I had added this comment (one year ago!) but never actually clicked “submit” on the review. Sorry for that. I only noticed when I got the email that you’d rebased!
