audio: converting int32 to/from float shouldn't use doubles.
The concern is that a massive int sample, like 0x7FFFFFFF, won't fit in a float32, which doesn't have enough bits to hold a whole number this large, just to divide it to get a value between 0 and 1. Previously we would convert to double, to get more bits, do the division, and cast back to a float, but this is expensive. Casting to double is more accurate, but it's 2x to 3x slower. Shifting out the least significant byte of an int32, so it'll definitely fit in a float, and dividing by 0x7FFFFF is still accurate to about 5 decimal places, and the difference doesn't appear to be perceptable.
