// number was found, but it was out of the representable range of the requested
// type, or to std::errc() otherwise.
//
// If a well-formed number was found, `ptr` is set to one past the sequence of

//
// This interface incorporates the proposed resolutions for library issues
// DR 3800 and DR 3801.  If these are adopted with different wording,
// Abseil's behavior will change to match the standard.  (The behavior most
// likely to change is for DR 3801, which says what `value` will be set to in
// the case of overflow and underflow.  Code that wants to avoid possible
// breaking changes in this area should not depend on `value` when the returned
// from_chars_result indicates a range error.)
//
// Searches the range [first, last) for the longest matching pattern beginning
// at `first` that represents a floating point number.  If one is found, store
// the result in `value`.
//
// The matching pattern format is almost the same as that of strtod(), except
// that C locale is not respected, and an initial '+' character in the input
// range will never be matched.
//
// If `fmt` is set, it must be one of the enumerator values of the chars_format.
// (This is despite the fact that chars_format is a bitmask type.)  If set to
// `scientific`, a matching number must contain an exponent.  If set to `fixed`,
// then an exponent will never match.  (For example, the string "1e5" will be
// parsed as "1".)  If set to `hex`, then a hexadecimal float is parsed in the
// format that strtod() accepts, except that a "0x" prefix is NOT matched.
// (In particular, in `hex` mode, the input "0xff" results in the largest
// matching pattern "0".)
