Summary: Decimal.py enhancements

Initial Comment:
Raymond:

Changed the _fix and _fixexponents semantics according
to how they were used by the module, which simplifies
several things (less checks to see if "something" is
None, skipped the check for _is_special at the start of
_fixexponents, etc...).

Also skipped copying ``self`` in _fix() before calling
_fixexponents() (which already makes a copy of it). And
made some style fixups.

The tests passed ok, showing a 4% speedup.

I'm posting this like a patch and not doing a direct
commit to you to check if another change to the code
(with this speedup) is valuable.
