Hi all,

as already stated I am comfortable with any file name. But: I do want a _final_
decision. And, since some developers already think dune-common a little
overcrowded, I suggest to consider some kind of condensation of all the
mathematical stuff.

As far as I can see, a single math header seems not desired. Hence, let me add
another proposition to the discussion: What about 'math/constants.hh'?

Best,

Martin
