Before submitting my pull request, I would like to hear your opinion
about the naming of the squared modulus function, since we won't be able
to change it once it is released.
I picked `abs2` for consistency with `abs` and because it is
mathematically more accurate than C++'s `norm`.

Be careful : this code is tricky ! real.sizeof is the storage size, ie
16 bytes on x86_64.
The following happily compiles ;-)

I am trying to define custom format specifiers (as described here [1])
for the following wrapper struct :

import std.string: format;
struct wrapper(T) {
private T val;
public this(T newVal) pure { val = newVal;
