Previously, scientific notation (scinot) was only supported for SVG
presentation attributes through a special tokenizer quirk. Since scinot
has now been added to the CSS syntax spec [1][2][3] and is already
supported by Gecko [4] and IE(11).
To harmonize, the call to parseSVGNumber(...) is replaced with a call to
charactersToDouble(...). This results in a small behavioral change, since
the former would reject numbers that were too large. These will now parse
as "Infinity" [5].
Since this removes the last caller of isSVGNumberParsingEnabledForMode()
that function is removed as well.

[5] Tested browsers were not entirely consistent in their treatment of
    infinities (Gecko: Infinity, IE: FLT_MAX).
