v0.4.4

Changes

• Revert formatting semantics to match Rust's meanings rather than Python's
  • The meaning of the formatting string "{:.4}" has returned to "4 digits after decimal place" rather than "four digits of precision"
• Add new compile-time parameters for safer formatting
  • Configurable thresholds prevent printing out full decimal form of large numbers, like 1e999999999999999 (could be used in)
• Improved JSON serialization / formatting routines

Note

Please add your own tests to ensure this library formats (and continues to format) numbers as you expect

• Added methods

  • BigDecimalRef::clone_into
  • BigDecimal::set_scale (mutable version of take_and_scale)

• Optimized bigdecimal comparison algorithms

• Restricted versions of num-* crates to respect Minimum Supported Rust Version (1.43)

  • I may raise this up soon
