Added :class:`.Double`, :class:`.DOUBLE`, :class:`.DOUBLE_PRECISION`
datatypes to the base ``sqlalchemy.`` module namespace, for explicit use of
double/double precision as well as generic "double" datatypes. Use
:class:`.Double` for generic support that will resolve to DOUBLE/DOUBLE
PRECISION/FLOAT as needed for different backends.
Implemented DDL and reflection support for ``FLOAT`` datatypes which
include an explicit "binary_precision" value. Using the Oracle-specific
:class:`_oracle.FLOAT` datatype, the new parameter
:paramref:`_oracle.FLOAT.binary_precision` may be specified which will
render Oracle's precision for floating point types directly. This value is
interpreted during reflection. Upon reflecting back a ``FLOAT`` datatype,
the datatype returned is one of :class:`_types.DOUBLE_PRECISION` for a
``FLOAT`` for a precision of 126 (this is also Oracle's default precision
for ``FLOAT``), :class:`_types.REAL` for a precision of 63, and
:class:`_oracle.FLOAT` for a custom precision, as per Oracle documentation.
As part of this change, the generic :paramref:`_sqltypes.Float.precision`
value is explicitly rejected when generating DDL for Oracle, as this
precision cannot be accurately converted to "binary precision"; instead, an
error message encourages the use of
:meth:`_sqltypes.TypeEngine.with_variant` so that Oracle's specific form of
precision may be chosen exactly. This is a backwards-incompatible change in
behavior, as the previous "precision" value was silently ignored for
Oracle.
