[issue26680] Incorporating float.is_integer into the numeric tower and Decimal

[Serhiy Storchaka]

What is the use case of float.is_integer() at all? I haven't found its usages in large projects on GitHub. Only in playing examples where it is (mis)used in cases like (x/5).is_integer() (x % 5 == 0 is better) or (x**0.5).is_integer() (wrong for some floats or large integers).

Maybe it should be removed in Python 3.0.
