Subject: help: fix float lower bound check

needs to check -FLT_MAX not FLT_MIN, as explained in
c95d5fbea2122ac471f8aee86ee9f1cafeddeb00

that commit overlooked this and introduced a bug in 3.x whereby help output
would always print the range for float options with default ranges,
resulting in much messier output than expected.
