My mistake ... my noise level was far too high. Additionnally, the noise
with amplitude lower than LSB must be added to a full-scale range sine wave
to be dithered amongst the various quantization bins. If anyone is interested,
I updated http://jmfriedt.org/quantization.pdf which (I believe) demonstrates
the impact of quantization on the noise floor.
