PRINT, PRINTF, STRING, STRTRIM, all formats ... depend on C/C++ casting to different types.
This PR modifies the Convert() function to get similar results on X86_64 and AARCH64 (ARM64, M1,M2...) when needed (conversion of a float/double towards unsigned integer types)
This to solve 99% of #1881 , #1877 and #1842 but see #1948
Besides, snprintf format was 'i' and not 'u' in Ulong and Uint --- this made for error #1874
Addditionnally it was found that multithreading in Convert() may have been wrongly activated during some conversions, the code now checks GDL_NTHREADS value everywhere (?). Could potentially speedup things.
