3fe38e9bb80a6f7a308692511ffdbae1537f0505 currency: improve API
This is a breaking change, unfortunately.
It brings many improvements, though:
- Currency.Unit is nicer than Currency.Currency.
- Currency.Unit is a more accurate terminology than Currency.Currency
(The latter refers to both the concept of means of exchange and the
unit of measurement).
- Currency.Amount is more accurate than Currency.Value
- Both Unit and Amount will be used with unit packages and thus this
interface is more concistent.
- Splitting Amount from formattedValue gives better separation of
concerns.
- Removing formatting field from Amount makes it a more efficent
representation.
Also added a comment about the formatting API. Looing further into
other APIs a slight adjustment to the API may be in order.
