Additional test from Juan for nthRoot: an Integer with inexact nthRoot could answer a better Float than infinity.

Yet another version of #nthRoot: from Cuis
1) Receivers too big for Float arithmetic but without exact answer, and a better float than infinity is possible.
2) Besides, a small performance tweak: don't call 'selfAsFloat nthRoot: aPositiveInteger' if the result will be infinity, i.e. if the receiver is infinity.

There might be a best inexact square root approximation than infinity to some LargePositiveInteger in the range (1<&lt;54-1&lt;&lt;970 to: 1&lt;&lt;54-1&lt;&lt;1994)
