Add fixed-point decimal type to tarantool core. Adapt decNumber floating-point decimal library for the purpose, write a small wrapper and add unit tests. A new decimal type is an alias for decNumber numbers from the decNumber library. Arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /) and some mathematic functions (ln, log10, exp, pow, sqrt) are available together with methods to pack and unpack decimal to and from its packed representation (useful for serialization). We introduce a single context for all the arithmetic operations on decimals, which enforces both number precision and scale to be in range [0, 38]. NaNs and Infinities are restricted. Part of #692
