[issue40874] Update to libmpdec-2.5.0

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah <stefan at bytereef.org> added the comment:

Since this is an ongoing problem:  When I submitted the decNumber
patches to Cowlishaw, he asked me if I would be interested in
maintaining decNumber.  I declined at the time due to time constraints.

Had I accepted, I'd control 2/3 of the decimal market now, the Intel
library being the remaining 1/3.


I'm unwilling to justify my competence to random bug reporters in
this forum, especially when I'm nice to them initially.
