formatOfMidpoint()



It seems obvious to me that if a midpoint is not representable in the
target format, the result should simply be NaN.  I'm using the minimal
definition of midpoint here:  an interior point.

This might also be the case for some of the off-center implicit-format
examples, where the issue is not range but precision:  if the Level 1
interval is entirely between two representable target-format values,
then there is no representable midpoint, and the result should be NaN.
