decimal: Exact Arbitrary-Precision Decimal Vectors

Arbitrary-precision vectors with an exact decimal representation, avoiding the rounding surprises of binary floating point. Built on the 'mpdecimal' C library, arithmetic is governed by an explicit decimal context controlling precision, rounding, and signaling, and vectors integrate with 'vctrs' for use in data frames, 'tibble' objects, summaries, and common numeric workflows. Missing values, signed zeros, infinities, and not-a-number values are supported throughout. The arithmetic model follows Cowlishaw (2009) "General Decimal Arithmetic" <https://speleotrove.com/decimal/decarith.html>.

Arrow Decimal Types
A name collision to know about | From Arrow to decimal | Scale comes along for free | Nulls become NA | Chunked arrays work the same way | Integer columns | From decimal to Arrow | Pinning the type | Plain fields, and when you want one | Whole tables and Parquet files | Decimal columns written elsewhere | Where the two type systems differ
