    Floating-point number to decimal conversion routines.

    # Problem statement

    We are given the floating-point number `v = f * 2^e` with an integer `f`,
    and its bounds `minus` and `plus` such that any number between `v - minus` and
    `v + plus` will be rounded to `v`. For the simplicity we assume that
    this range is exclusive. Then we would like to get the unique decimal
    representation `V = 0.d[0..n-1] * 10^k` such that:

    - `d[0]` is non-zero.

    - It's correctly rounded when parsed back: `v - minus < V < v + plus`.
      Furthermore it is shortest such one, i.e., there is no representation
      with less than `n` digits that is correctly rounded.

    - It's closest to the original value: `abs(V - v) <= 10^(k-n) / 2`. Note that
      there might be two representations satisfying this uniqueness requirement,
      in which case some tie-breaking mechanism is used.

    We will call this mode of operation as to the *shortest* mode. This mode is used
    when there is no additional constraint, and can be thought as a "natural" mode
    as it matches the ordinary intuition (it at least prints `0.1f32` as "0.1").

    We have two more modes of operation closely related to each other. In these modes
    we are given either the number of significant digits `n` or the last-digit
    limitation `limit` (which determines the actual `n`), and we would like to get
    the representation `V = 0.d[0..n-1] * 10^k` such that:

    - `d[0]` is non-zero, unless `n` was zero in which case only `k` is returned.

    - It's closest to the original value: `abs(V - v) <= 10^(k-n) / 2`. Again,
      there might be some tie-breaking mechanism.

    When `limit` is given but not `n`, we set `n` such that `k - n = limit`
    so that the last digit `d[n-1]` is scaled by `10^(k-n) = 10^limit`.
    If such `n` is negative, we clip it to zero so that we will only get `k`.
    We are also limited by the supplied buffer. This limitation is used to print
    the number up to given number of fractional digits without knowing
    the correct `k` beforehand.

    We will call the mode of operation requiring `n` as to the *exact* mode,
    and one requiring `limit` as to the *fixed* mode. The exact mode is a subset of
    the fixed mode: the sufficiently large last-digit limitation will eventually fill
    the supplied buffer and let the algorithm to return.

    # Implementation overview

    It is easy to get the floating point printing correct but slow (Russ Cox has
    [demonstrated](http://research.swtch.com/ftoa) how it's easy), or incorrect but
    fast (naïve division and modulo). But it is surprisingly hard to print
    floating point numbers correctly *and* efficiently.

    There are two classes of algorithms widely known to be correct.

    - The "Dragon" family of algorithm is first described by Guy L. Steele Jr. and
      Jon L. White. They rely on the fixed-size big integer for their correctness.
      A slight improvement was found later, which is posthumously described by
      Robert G. Burger and R. Kent Dybvig. David Gay's `dtoa.c` routine is
      a popular implementation of this strategy.

    - The "Grisu" family of algorithm is first described by Florian Loitsch.
      They use very cheap integer-only procedure to determine the close-to-correct
      representation which is at least guaranteed to be shortest. The variant,
      Grisu3, actively detects if the resulting representation is incorrect.

    We implement both algorithms with necessary tweaks to suit our requirements.
    In particular, published literatures are short of the actual implementation
    difficulties like how to avoid arithmetic overflows. Each implementation,
    available in `strategy::dragon` and `strategy::grisu` respectively,
    extensively describes all necessary justifications and many proofs for them.
    (It is still difficult to follow though. You have been warned.)

    Both implementations expose two public functions:

    - `format_shortest(decoded, buf)`, which always needs at least
      `MAX_SIG_DIGITS` digits of buffer. Implements the shortest mode.

    - `format_exact(decoded, buf, limit)`, which accepts as small as
      one digit of buffer. Implements exact and fixed modes.

    They try to fill the `u8` buffer with digits and returns the number of digits
    written and the exponent `k`. They are total for all finite `f32` and `f64`
    inputs (Grisu internally falls back to Dragon if necessary).

    The rendered digits are formatted into the actual string form with
    four functions:

    - `to_shortest_str` prints the shortest representation, which can be padded by
      zeroes to make *at least* given number of fractional digits.

    - `to_shortest_exp_str` prints the shortest representation, which can be
      padded by zeroes when its exponent is in the specified ranges,
      or can be printed in the exponential form such as `1.23e45`.

    - `to_exact_exp_str` prints the exact representation with given number of
      digits in the exponential form.

    - `to_exact_fixed_str` prints the fixed representation with *exactly*
      given number of fractional digits.

    They all return a slice of preallocated `Part` array, which corresponds to
    the individual part of strings: a fixed string, a part of rendered digits,
    a number of zeroes or a small (`u16`) number. The caller is expected to
    provide a large enough buffer and `Part` array, and to assemble the final
    string from resulting `Part`s itself.

    All algorithms and formatting functions are accompanied by extensive tests
    in `coretests::num::flt2dec` module. It also shows how to use individual
    functions.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
