MetasploitModule#evil_float_string

The evil_float seems to require some repeating element. Maybe
it's just superstition, but straight up 300_002-lenth random
numbers don't appear to trigger the vulnerability. Also, these are
easier to produce, and slightly better than the static "1.1111..."
for 300,000 decimal places.
