This won't change any actual values when the rep is a fundamental
arithmetic type, but it is more stylistically consistent with the idea
of a "default constructor".
We also update our contract to officially promise that we do this. This
lets us get rid of the scary/threatening language that "we might change
this out from under you!", even though we never had any intention to
actually do so. We retain the encouragement to use
au::ZERO
, and toavoid using a default-constructed
Quantity
for anything other thanfuture assignment.
Fixes #273.
