Description
Describe the bug
Formatting a Vec2 with {:?} leads to its Debug impl to format both coordinates with {:.1}, which discards any decimal digits after the first.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
format!("{:?}", vec2(0.01, -0.01))"[0.0 -0.0]"
(untested)
Expected behavior
Formatting a value should not discard important information. Debug especially shouldn't be doing that.
Note that the Display impl does not have this problem.

Research direction
Inspect crates/emath/src/vec2.rs at the referenced lines 485-493, then reproduce the issue with format!("{:?}", vec2(0.01, -0.01)). Done means the Debug output no longer discards important decimal digits, while the existing Display behavior remains unaffected.
