bug#55334: Incorrect documentation of "string-to-number" function

[emacs--- via "Bug reports for GNU Emacs, the Swiss army knife of text editors" <bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org>]

As of commit [364e3d7] (2022-05-09), doc/lispref/strings.texi says
following about "string-to-number" function:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/doc/lispref/strings.texi#n851

	@defun string-to-number string &optional base
	@cindex string to number
	This function returns the numeric value of the characters in
	@var{string}.  If @var{base} is non-@code{nil}, it must be an integer
	between 2 and 16 (inclusive), and integers are converted in that base.
	If @var{base} is @code{nil}, then base ten is used.  Floating-point
	conversion only works in base ten; we have not implemented other
	radices for floating-point numbers, because that would be much more
	work and does not seem useful.

	If @var{string} looks like an integer but its value is too large
	to fit into a Lisp integer, @code{string-to-number} returns a
	floating-point result.

Last paragraph does not match behaviour I can observe on my emacs:

	(floatp (string-to-number (number-to-string (expt 2 800))))
	=> nil
	(bignump (string-to-number (number-to-string (expt 2 800))))
	=> t

I think this paragraph was written before advent of bignums, and
should be removed.
