/** Formatter for long integers with low overhead.
 * <p>
 * This class is intended to be used when formatting large amounts of data with
 * fixed formats like, for example, large ephemeris or measurement files.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Building the formatter is done once, and the formatter
 * {@link #appendTo(Appendable, long)} or {@link #toString(long)} methods can be
 * called hundreds of thousands of times, without incurring the overhead that
 * would occur with {@code String.format()}. Some tests showed this formatter is
 * about 10 times faster than {@code String.format()} with {@code %{width}d} format.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Instances of this class are immutable
