rust_decimal_macros

Bug fix release:

• Fixes issue where ToSql was incorrectly calculating weight when whole portion = numeric portion.
• Fixes issue where Decimal::new incorrectly handled i64::max_value() and i64::min_value().
• Fixes issue where rem operation incorrectly returned results when scale was required.

This release represents the start of semantic versioning and allows the library to start making fundamental improvements under the guise of V2.0. Leading up to that I expect to release 1.x versions which will include adding various mathematical functions such as pow, ln, log10 etc.

Version 1.0.0 does come with some new features:

• Checked Operations! This implements checked_add, checked_sub, checked_mul, checked_div and checked_rem.
• Fixes overflow from max_value() and min_value() for i32 and i64.
• Minor documentation improvements and test coverage.

Special thanks to @0e4ef622 for their help with this release!

• Fixes a bug in floor and ceil where negative numbers were incorrectly handled.

• Macros are now supported on stable. This does use a hack for the meantime so due diligence is required before usage.
• Fixes issue when parsing strings where an underscore preceded a decimal point.
• const_fn support via a feature flag. In the future this will be the default option however in order to support older compiler versions is behind a feature flag.

• Macros (nightly) now output structural data as opposed to serialized data. This is fully backwards compatible and results in some minor performance improvements. Also, removed feature gate so that it can be compiled in stable.
• Fixes a string parsing bug when given highly significant numbers that require rounding.

• Performance optimization for add.

• Introduces the Neg trait to support the ability to use -decimal_variable.
• Fixes bug with underflow on addition.

This minor release is purely to expose rust_decimal_macros for use on the nightly channel. Documentation has been updated accordingly.
