) This fixes a bug where the range aggregation always treats the range end points as doubles, even if the field value doesn't have enough resolution to fill a double. This was creating issues where the range would have a "more precise" approximation of an unrepresentable number than the field, causing the value to fall in the wrong bucket. Note 1: This does not resolve the case where we have a long value that is not precisely representable as a double. Since the wire format sends the range bounds as doubles, by the time we get to where this fix is operating, we've already lost the precision to act on a big long. Fixing that problem will require a wire format change, and I'm not convinced it's worth it right now. Note 2: This is probably still broken for ScaledFloats, since they don't implement NumberFieldType. Resolves elastic#77033
