Improve std.conv

[9rnsr]

Cleanup code:

• 639b099 - Remove dead code.
  They have been no longer used - parseIntegral, parseFloating, toIfloat, toIdouble, toIreal, toCfloat, toCdouble, toCreal, getComplexStrings
• f176fde - Remove duplicate unittests
  Some unittests are redundant, so remove them.

Bug fixes:

• d74bb14 - Fix octal and enable part of its unittest.
• 3b7dd27 and 03a76d8 - Support parse!dchar(dstring) behave like chomp
• 277c7a7 - Fix const(bool) parsing.

On a related note, since you've been doing a fair bit of work on std.conv, you might want to consider implementing issue 6377. I tried to, but ran into errors regarding forward declarations and the like and gave up for the time being. But since you're obviously familiar with the code, you'd probably have a better shot at getting it to work.

I found a bit problem while using parse!Char(String) function other place.
It should allow getting front with both slicing (-> char, wchar, and dchar) and decoding (-> dchar).

Reply to jmdavis:
Interesting. I didn't know that issue. I'd like to implement it.

This loop should probably be

foreach(j, s; errors)

The same goes for the other loops just like it.

Integrate similar tests by using foreach and TypeTuple.
And more fixes.

I have tried to implement it, see #185.

Let's wait for Kenji's additions before reviewing this again.

This request does not introduce new features; does only fixing bugs, cleaning up tests, and remove unused codes.

I have already fixed the matter Jonathan's pointed out two days before.

Thanks.
