fcc08fa89e Fixed bigfloats on Win64. Win64's long type is 32 bits and GMP's default is to
use longs for the "limbs" of bigints. However, when GMP's configure script
detects that mingw64 is compiling, it defines LONG_LONG_LIMB, which makes the
type of limbs long long, or 64 bits. This is fine; a 64-bit machine should use
64-bit ints for the digits of its bigints. It would have been nice to know
this special case earlier, though I can see why it's not advertised: most
users don't need to know, and it seems like it's obviously the right choice to
make when dealing with Win64's annoying ABI.

Made "mpfr.rkt" search for 'mpfr_set_z_exp if 'mpfr_set_z_2exp isn't found.
Hopefully this allows the bigfloat tests to finish on DrDr. If not, DrDr
will need a libmpfr upgrade.

Made some minor doc fixups

055512b4e8 Renamed make-flexp/base' to make-flexpt'
Renamed `dist' struct type to `distribution' ("dist" is too common)

5a43f2c6bc Finished array documentation!
Cleaned up other docs in preparation for alpha-testing announcement

Created `math/utils' module for stuff that doesn't go anywhere else (e.g.
FFT scaling convention, max-math-threads parameters)

Reduced the number of macros that expand to applications of `array-map'

Added `flvector-sum', defined `flsum' in terms of it

Reduced the number of pointwise `flvector', `flarray' and `fcarray' operations

Reworked `inline-build-flvector' and `inline-flvector-map' to be faster and
expand to less code in both typed and untyped Racket

Redefined conversions like `list->flvector' in terms of for loops (can do
it now that TR has working `for/flvector:', etc.)

2d34811ab6 Finished `math/distributions' documentation!
Fixed a few limit cases in some distributions (e.g. (uniform-dist 0 0) didn't
act like a delta distribution, (beta-dist 0 0) and (beta-dist +inf.0 +inf.0)
pretended to be defined by unique limits even though they can't be)

Made integer distributions' pdfs return +nan.0 when given non-integers

Added "private/statistics/counting.rkt", for hashing and binning samples

Added `flvector-sums' (cumulative sums with single rounding error)

Added `flinteger?', `flnan?' and `flrational?', which are faster than their
non-flonum counterparts (at least in Typed Racket; haven't tested untyped)

0936d8c20b Reworked distribution API, finally happy with it (as happy as I can be without being able to partially instantiate polymorphic parent struct types)
Added docs for math/distributions (about 75% finished)
Started docs for math/array (very incomplete)
