puremp 0.1.0

A pure-Rust arbitrary-precision arithmetic library — integers, rationals and MPFR-class floats — with no foreign-code dependencies, plus a C ABI and a CLI.
Documentation
/*
 * puremp.h — C ABI for the `puremp` arbitrary-precision arithmetic library.
 *
 * These declarations mirror the `#[unsafe(no_mangle)] extern "C"` entry points
 * in `src/ffi.rs`, built when the crate is compiled with the `ffi` feature:
 *
 *     cargo rustc --lib --release --features ffi --crate-type staticlib
 *     cargo rustc --lib --release --features ffi --crate-type cdylib
 *
 * Conventions:
 *   - `PurempInt` is an opaque, heap-allocated arbitrary-precision signed
 *     integer. Every constructor returns a handle the caller must release with
 *     `puremp_int_free`.
 *   - Fallible calls return NULL (pointer results) or a documented sentinel.
 *   - Strings returned by the library must be released with
 *     `puremp_string_free`.
 *   - Passing NULL where a handle is expected yields NULL / a sentinel rather
 *     than crashing; every call catches Rust panics at the boundary.
 *
 * This library is MIT-licensed. See LICENSE.
