Make precision a keyword argument, improve handling of rounding mode. #29157

This makes a few changes to avoid unnecessarily calling setrounding and setprecision. It also changes precision to be a keyword argument (though does not yet deprecate the old behaviour), and defines an enum for the MPFR rounding mode.

It includes the change from #29127 (but not the tests, so that should probably be merged first).

It does also mean that all BigFloat(x, precision=...) constructors are now thread-safe (which isn't huge, but better than nothing).

This looks like a very good change to me! I will need a second read for proper review though.

… constructors.

This makes a few changes to avoid unnecessarily calling `setrounding` and `setprecision`. It also changes `precision` to be a keyword argument (though does not yet deprecate the old behaviour).
