## Requirements and Limitations
In many cases, this library can be used as a drop-in replacement for the C++17 `from_chars` function, especially when performance is a concerned. Thus we expect C++17 support. Though it might be reasonable to want C++17 features as part of old compilers, support old systems is not an objective of this library.
The `from_chars` is meant to be locale-independent. Thus it is not an objective of this library to support
locale-sensitive parsing.
The performance is optimized for 19 or fewer significant digits. In practice, there should
never be more than 17 digits since it is enough to identify exactly all possible 64-bit numbers (double).
In fact, for many numbers, far fewer than 17 digits are needed.
