New description:
The Legendre polynomials, returned by `legendre_P()`, of the first kind
are orthogonal over [-1,1] and are normalized to have value +-1 at the
endpoints.
When solving least-squares problems, it's convenient to be able to
construct them over an arbitrary interval [a,b].

Comment:
This should address the `a==b` issue and avoid the coercions.
