Minimize floating point operations

[charlespax]

There are many bast ten floating point operations. If possible, let's make things base 16 and use bit shift math. This should save a bunch of flash space since the floating point library is pretty big.

I've looked at the t400 code and I think the floating point operations can be replaced with int16 values. The int16 would have a range of -35535 to 35535, if the values were stored as base 10 with a resolution of 1/10th degree the supported range would be -3553.5C to 3553.5C. The base 10 division and modulo operations would be must faster and take less code space than the floating point.

I think I need some more information on the temperature vs microvolt lookup in the code. I see the following functions, where did they come from? If we can eliminate some of these floating point operations the code will be smaller and faster

From GetJunctionVoltage():
i = jTemp/10 + 27;
jVoltage = valueLow - TK_OFFSET + (jTemp - (i*10-270)) * (valueHigh - valueLow)/10;

From GetTypKTemp():
LookedupValue = ((float)-270 + (i)*10) + ((10 *(float)(microVolts - valueLow)) / ((float)(valueHigh - valueLow)));

@protological Can this be closed now that #220 is merged?

[protological]

Not all the float operations have been removed. The mentioned algorithms use floating point values. Maybe we need to keep some floats

I've managed to reduce the floating point math quite a bit, however there are still a few hold outs

t400.ino
void readTemperatures(): lines 271-284

functions.c
int32_t celcius_to_microvolts(float celcius): Argument is float and then converted to uint8_t
int16_t microvolts_to_celcius(int32_t microVolts): line 517, 525

If we can get some details on the math in these functions I might be able to translate them to integer math operations
