Comment (by dlucas):

 Ok, I added sanity checks on the input on every `decode_to_*` method.
 It does not utterly fail anymore if one tries to decode something which is
 not a vector (or a vector which is not in the ambient space of the code).

 I also upgraded doctests to document this behaviour. New doctests now
 generate a random codeword `c`, create a channel which adds as many errors
 as decoder's capacity, transmit `c` to get `y` and compare `c` and `y`
 decoded. It's much better than a single hardcoded example.

 Furthermore, I added an explicative message to every call to
 `DecodingError`.
