Several improvements were made to the corelibs implementation of
Decimal
over the years which have not been in sync with the overlay. Most evidently, #2926 resolving SR-13837 and #2574 implementinginit?(exactly:)
are lacking from the overlay. Credit goes entirely to @spevans for actually implementing these fixes.This PR re-aligns the two implementations. Only very minor adjustments are made to the corelibs implementation, mostly where it uses private APIs that do not exist in the overlay, to better keep the two implementations in sync.
A minor change is made to both implementations in terms of diagnostic messages: where we state that
Decimal
does not "yet" conform toFloatingPoint
, the "yet" is deleted because it misleadingly suggests a conformance that is not the plan of record.
