The floorDiv/floorMod functions do not throw exceptions for out of range
values
to be consistent with the builtin language math operations.
The |toIntExact |method is used by developers because it does the
range check and throws an exception.
It is cleaner not to mix the semantics of the two operations.

Just to note that floorMod(long, int) is not present. This is often
useful as the mod side generally fits in 32 bits, which means the
result can fit in 32 bits. This often saves the need to call
toIntExact() on the result.
