fixes#22227
rationale:
- `3u - 4u` is supported why not`3u.toRational - 4u.toRational`
- all of rationals' api is on SomeInteger, looks like unsigned is
declared as supported
- math on unsigned rationals is meaningful and useful.
* make more standard libraries work with `nimPreviewSlimSystem`
* typo
* part two
* Delete specutils.nim
* fixes more tests
* more fixes
* fixes tests
* fixes three more tests
* add formatfloat import
* fix
* last
* CIs: attempt to use csources_v1
* also updated the BSDs
* also updated azure pipelines
* std modules should not itself use the 'std/' import dir...
* compiler has to be careful with std/ for v1 booting
* Error -> Defect for defects
The distinction between Error and Defect is subjective,
context-dependent and somewhat arbitrary, so when looking at an
exception, it's hard to guess what it is - this happens often when
looking at a `raises` list _without_ opening the corresponding
definition and digging through layers of inheritance.
With the help of a little consistency in naming, it's at least possible
to start disentangling the two error types and the standard lib can set
a good example here.
Current limit `high(int32)` is not safe for 32-bit platforms
and it will overflow (even when running its own test suite).
Similar behaviour would be when try to set limit to `high(int64)`
on 64-bit platforms.
This change selects safe maximum value based on platform
size of int. Safe maximum considered half of int size (for
backward compatiblity).
