[Rd] rbinom rounds size argument

[Ben Bolker]

  rbinom (R-1.4.1) silently rounds its "size" argument.
  The C code contains

    n = floor(nin + 0.5);

  I would argue that this should this either be documented or changed (to
return NA).  (The behavior is inconsistent with dbinom).

  I can submit a bug report if people agree it's a bug.
