[PATCH] Fix decimal_point and thousands_sep in es_MX locale


The following patch fixes the value of decimal_point and thousands_sep
for the es_MX locale, which have been broken by commit 4b19cd7a.

Rationale:
- for decimal_point it's basically reverting to the previous version
  before commit 4b19cd7a.
- the change is consistent with mon_decimal_point and mon_thousands_sep
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark
- For those speaking Spanish, the official norm is available:
  http://www.ine.gob.mx/publicaciones/download/008scfi.pdf (page 57)
  amended by:
  http://www.dof.gob.mx/documentos/3837/seeco/seeco.htm
  
  These links shows that it was officially a coma instead of a dot
  starting from 2002, but given that nobody used it, it has been 
  switch to coma *or* dot. The dot is the one used in practice.
