[tarantool-patches] [PATCH 2/2] decimal: expose decimal type to lua.

Hi! Thank you for review! I addressed your comments and sent v2.
The only inconsistency is with macro names: I feel like LDECIMAL_BINOP and LDECIMAL_FUNC
are better, since the latter one is only used for functions now (ln, log10, sqrt, abs).

>> `decimal = require('decimal')`
>> Now you can construct decimals via `new` method.
>> Decimals may be constructed from lua numbers, strings, unsigned and
>> signed 64 bit integers.
>> Decimal is a fixed-point type with maximum 38 digits of precision. All
>> the calculations are exact, so, be careful when constructing decimals
>> from lua numbers: they may hold only 15 decimal digits of precision.
>> You are advised to construct decimals from strings, since strings

>> ```
>> a = decimal.new(123e-7)
>> b = decimal.new('123.456')
>> c = decimal.new('123.456e2')
>> d = decimal.new(123ULL)
>> e = decimal.new(2)
>> ```
>> The allowed operations are addition, subtraction, division,
>> multiplication and power. If at least one of the operands is decimal,
>> decimal operations are performed. The other operand may be either
>> decimal or string, containing a number representation, or a lua number.
>> When the operation is called as `decimal.opname`, both operands may be
>> strings or lua numbers, e.g. `decimal.add(23, '123.456') == 146.456`:

>> Operations only fail on an overflow, i.e. when result exceeds 10^38 - 1.
>> This includes division by zero. In these cases an error `Operation
>> failed` is raised.
>> Underflow is also possible, when precision needed to store the exact
>> result exceeds 38 digits. Underflow is not an error. When an underflow
>> happens, the result is rounded to 38 digits of precision.
