Next version.
Changes since previous patch:
1. Remove "ryu_" from the name of interface functions; it seems better
to name them according to functionality rather than enshrining the
algorithm name. double_to_shortest_decimal*() and
float_to_shortest_decimal*() are the new names. common/ryu.h renamed
to common/shortest_dec.h accordingly.
2. Revert the removal of upstream's declaration-after-statements, and
add makefile foo to compile without warning about same. Other style
aspects (indentation, comments) still follow our style rather than
upstream's.
3. This patch _includes_ the strtof() patch that was also posted
separately; this is because we need accurate float4in in order to get
round-trip conversions to work for the edge case.
4. Passes regression tests (existing tests either by changing the
output, where the result is reasonably expected to be bit-exact; or by
locally setting extra_float_digits=0 to restore the old output, where
the output is not expected to be bit-exact).
Still to be done: docs, which are still waiting on final decisions on
the questions I asked upthread.
