Closes #164 by supporting:
Int(d::Dual)
Integer(d::Dual)
Float64(d::Dual)
Float32(d::Dual)
This currently throws an
InexactError
when tracers are not empty. This is analogous to ForwardDiff's approach.Depending on the outcome of the ongoing discussion in #167, we might want to make this less conservative for
Int(d)
andInteger(d)
in the future.
