Eric, Serhiy: do you have opinions on the right way forward?

Here are 6 options, on a spectrum of increasing level of acceptance of "N".

-2. Remove "N" support for cdecimal right now (i.e., for Python 3.11), on the 
basis that there's no need for deprecation warnings, because it was never 
officially a feature.
-1. Deprecate "N" support for cdecimal, remove it in Python 3.13.
0. Do nothing (the default), leaving _pydecimal and cdecimal inconsistent.
1. Add "N" support to the Python implementation for parity with cdecimal, but 
don't document it - leave it as an undocumented feature.
2. Officially add "N" support to decimal formatting - add documentation, tests, 
and fix the Python implementation.
3. Officially add "N" support to all numeric formatting ...
