New submission from Alexander Belopolsky:
PEP 3141 defines floor division as floor(x/y) and specifies that floor() should
return int type. Builtin float type has been made part of the PEP 3141
numerical tower, but floor division of two floats still results in a float.

* #1656 - Make math.{floor,ceil}(float) return ints per PEP 3141
* #1623 - Implement PEP-3141 for Decimal
