Connecting nodes with spatial positions fails in corner case

[heplesser]

In NEST master (355e52d) Connect() fails in the following situation

l = nest.Create('parrot_neuron', n=20,
                positions=nest.spatial.free(pos=[(j+1, 0) for j in range(20)], edge_wrap=True))
nest.Connect(l, l, {"rule": "pairwise_bernoulli", "p": 1.0, "mask": {"circular": {"radius": 1.2}}})

with

Assertion failed: (( pos - lower_left_ )[ i ] > -std::numeric_limits< double >::epsilon() and ( lower_left_ + extent_ - pos )[ i ] > -std::numeric_limits< double >::epsilon()), function insert, file ntree_impl.h, line 487.

All works fine if edge_wrap=False. This is likely a corner case of rounding coordinates. See also #2466.
