• Improve performance by working around the issue BigInt.gcd() is really slow with a custom gcd implementation based on Euclidean algorithm.

• Update files according to license.

• Update license file to be recognized by pub.flutter-io.cn.

• Explicitly throw an ArgumentError when a Rational is created with a zero denominator.

• Add Rational.tryParse.

The goal of this version is to move several decimal methods back to the decimal package and to have sharper types on the API.

It introduces several breaking changes.

• ~/, round(), floor(), ceil(), truncate() now return a BigInt. If you need a Rational you can convert the BigInt to Rational with bigint.toRational().
• Removal of toDecimalString(). You can replace it with rational.toDecimal(scaleOnInfinitePrecision: 10).toString() using the decimal package.
• Removal of isNaN getter. It was always returning false.
• Removal of isInfinite getter. It was always returning false.
• Removal of isNegative getter. You can replace it with rational < Rational.zero.
• Removal of roundToDouble(), floorToDouble(), ceilToDouble(), truncateToDouble(). You can replace them by round().toDouble(), floor().toDouble(), ceil().toDouble(), truncate().toDouble().
• Removal of toInt(). You can replace it with rational.toBigInt().toInt().
• Removal of hasFinitePrecision getter. This getter (provided as extension on Rational) is now part of the decimal package.
• Removal of precision and scale getters. They was only available on rational returning true on hasFinitePrecision (ie. decimal numbers). You can replace them with rational.toDecimal().precision and rational.toDecimal().scale using the decimal package.
• Removal of toStringAsFixed, toStringAsExponential and toStringAsPrecision. You can replace them with rational.toDecimal(scaleOnInfinitePrecision: xxx).toStringAsFixed,rational.toDecimal(scaleOnInfinitePrecision: xxx).toStringAsExponential and rational.toDecimal(scaleOnInfinitePrecision: xxx).toStringAsPrecision using the decimal package.

Other changes:

• Add extension method toRational() on int.
• Add extension method toRational() on BigInt.
