Merge #13383: bench: Use non-throwing ParseDouble(...) instead of throwing boost::lexical_cast<double>(...)

f41d339b78 bench: Use non-throwing ParseDouble(...) instead of throwing boost::lexical_cast<double>(...) (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  * Non-Boost is better than Boost.
  * Non-throwing is better than throwing.
  * Explicit error handling is better than implicit error handling.
  * `ParseDouble(…)` deserves to be used outside of its unit tests :-)
