///  Precession matrix (including frame bias) from GCRS to a specified
///  date, IAU 2000 model.
///
///  Given:
///     date1,date2  f64          TT as a 2-part Julian Date (Note 1)
///
///  Returned (function value):
///                 [[f64; 3]; 3]    bias-precession matrix (Note 2)
///
///  Notes:
///
///  1) The TT date date1+date2 is a Julian Date, apportioned in any
///     convenient way between the two arguments.  For example,
///     JD(TT)=2450123.7 could be expressed in any of these ways,
///     among others:
///
///            date1          date2
///
///         2450123.7           0.0       (JD method)
///         2451545.0       -1421.3       (J2000 method)
///         2400000.5       50123.2       (MJD method)
///         2450123.5           0.2       (date & time method)
///
///     The JD method is the most natural and convenient to use in
///     cases where the loss of several decimal digits of resolution
///     is acceptable.  The J2000 method is best matched to the way
///     the argument is handled internally and will deliver the
///     optimum resolution.  The MJD method and the date & time methods
///     are both good compromises between resolution and convenience.
///
///  2) The matrix operates in the sense V(date) = rbp * V(GCRS), where
///     the p-vector V(GCRS) is with respect to the Geocentric Celestial
///     Reference System (IAU, 2000) and the p-vector V(date) is with
///     respect to the mean equatorial triad of the given date.
///
