// ParseFloat<10> will read the first 19 significant digits of the mantissa.
// This number was chosen for multiple reasons.
//
// (a) First, for whatever integer type we choose to represent the mantissa, we
// want to choose the largest possible number of decimal digits for that integer
// type.  We are using uint64_t, which can express any 19-digit unsigned
// integer.
//
// (b) Second, we need to parse enough digits that the binary value of any
// mantissa we capture has more bits of resolution than the mantissa
// representation in the target float.  Our algorithm requires at least 3 bits
// of headway, but 19 decimal digits give a little more than that.
//
// The following static assertions verify the above comments:

//
// Because a base-16-to-base-2 conversion can be done exactly, we do not need
// to maximize the number of scanned hex digits to improve our conversion.  What
// is required is to scan two more bits than the mantissa can represent, so that
// we always round correctly.
//
// (One extra bit does not suffice to perform correct rounding, since a number
// exactly halfway between two representable floats has unique rounding rules,
// so we need to differentiate between a "halfway between" number and a "closer
// to the larger value" number.)
