feat: into duration accepts floats (#15297)

Issue #9887 which can be closed after this is merged.

# Description

This allows the "into duration" command to accept floats as inputs.

Examples:

/>

**How it works:**

Using strings, like `"1.234sec" | into duration`, is already working, so
if a user inputs `1.234 | into duration --sec`, I just convert this back
to a string and use the previous conversion functions.

**Limitations:**

there are some limitation to using floats, but it's a general limitation
that is already present for other use cases:
- only 3 digits are taken into account in the decimal part
- floating durations in nano seconds are always floored and not rounded

# User-Facing Changes
Users can inject floats with `into duration`

# Tests + Formatting
cargo fmt and clippy OK
Tests OK

# After Submitting
The example I added will automatically become part of the doc, I think
that's enough for documentation.
