Implement bu_scan_fastf_t() function to scan floating point values from strings
completed by: Andromeda Galaxy
mentors: Sean, Daniel_R
This is a follow-on task for https://www.google-melange.com/gci/task/view/google/gci2014/5265491291537408
Following the analysis from that task, the objective is to implement the function described that has an argument for recording the number of characters scanned.
Implement the function making sure to robustly validate all function arguments. The function implementation should leverage existing API functions (e.g. bu_sscanf()) where warranted.
