ff14451b4a std: Implement more useful approxEq semantics
Comparisons with absolute epsilons are usually useful when comparing
numbers to zero, for non-zero numbers it's advised to switch to relative
epsilons instead to obtain meaningful results (check [1] for more
details).

The new API introduces approxEqAbs and approxEqRel, where the former
aliases and deprecated the old `approxEq`, allowing the user to pick the
right tool for the job.

The documentation is meant to guide the user in the choice of the
correct alternative.

Replace @typeOf with @TypeOf in all zig source
This change was mostly made with `zig fmt` and this also modified some whitespace. Note that in some files, `zig fmt` produced incorrect code, so the change was made manually.
