Cleanup: simplify DNA genfile casting

Avoid using the uint64_t as an intermediate cast since it complicates
behavior for signed types (which first need to be cast to an int64_t).

Assign both old_value_i & old_value_f from the original value to avoid
the need for different handling of signed/unsigned types.
