(perl #130335) fix numeric comparison for sort's built-in compare

For non-'use integer' this would always compare as NVs, but with
64-bit integers and non-long doubles, integers can have more
significant digits, making the sort <=> replacement less precise
than the <=> operator.

Use the same code to perform the comparison that <=> does, which
happens to be handily broken out into Perl_do_ncmp().
