xrandr patch: an additional decimal place is required to distinguish different refresh rates in query

I have a Samsung eh5000 HDTV that I connect to my Intel Mobile Ivy
Bridge chipset via HDMI1 as reported by xrandr. Without modification
xrandr reports the display's native resolution as

1920x1080      60.0 +   59.9     30.0     24.0     30.0     24.0*

This is confusing because it lists 30.0 and 24.0 twice each. I
discovered that I could switch to either one by specifying --rate
30/--rate 29.97 or --rate 24/--rate 23.98.

With the attached patch, I have added one more decimal everywhere a
frequency is reported so that now it's clearer what the supported
refresh rates are and how to switch to them:

1920x1080     60.00 +  59.94    30.00    24.00    29.97    23.98*
