The old method had a fairly large risk of undefined behavior, and the way the docs
were written could cause users to get confused.
Deprecate the old method and add StringRef method as preferred approach.
This makes our APIs more consistent. With optimizations enabled, doubles are just as efficient as floats on ARMv7, so we should take advantage of the extra precision.
Base.h provides a backwards compatibility shim (enabled unless
NAMESPACED_WPILIB is defined) that does a "using namespace frc".
However, as some header files do not include Base.h, this may
be a breaking change in some corner cases (with an easy fix).
Fixes#218.
