// Generates the digits of input number w.
// w is a floating-point number (DiyFp), consisting of a significand and an
// exponent. Its exponent is bounded by minimal_target_exponent and
// maximal_target_exponent.
// Hence -60 <= w.e() <= -32.
//
// Returns false if it fails, in which case the generated digits in the buffer
// should not be used.
// Preconditions:
// * low, w and high are correct up to 1 ulp (unit in the last place). That
// is, their error must be less that a unit of their last digits.
// * low.e() == w.e() == high.e()
// * low < w < high, and taking into account their error: low~ <= high~
// * minimal_target_exponent <= w.e() <= maximal_target_exponent
// Postconditions: returns false if procedure fails.
// otherwise:
// * buffer is not null-terminated, but len contains the number of digits.
// * buffer contains the shortest possible decimal digit-sequence
// such that LOW < buffer * 10^kappa < HIGH, where LOW and HIGH are the
// correct values of low and high (without their error).
// * if more than one decimal representation gives the minimal number of
// decimal digits then the one closest to W (where W is the correct value
// of w) is chosen.
// Remark: this procedure takes into account the imprecision of its input
// numbers. If the precision is not enough to guarantee all the postconditions
// then false is returned. This usually happens rarely (~0.5%).
//
// Say, for the sake of example, that
// w.e() == -48, and w.f() == 0x1234567890abcdef
// w's value can be computed by w.f() * 2^w.e()
// We can obtain w's integral digits by simply shifting w.f() by -w.e().
// -> w's integral part is 0x1234
// w's fractional part is therefore 0x567890abcdef.
// Printing w's integral part is easy (simply print 0x1234 in decimal).
// In order to print its fraction we repeatedly multiply the fraction by 10 and
// get each digit. Example the first digit after the point would be computed by
// (0x567890abcdef * 10) >> 48. -> 3
// The whole thing becomes slightly more complicated because we want to stop
// once we have enough digits. That is, once the digits inside the buffer
// represent 'w' we can stop. Everything inside the interval low - high
// represents w. However we have to pay attention to low, high and w's
// imprecision.
