* Don't rely on the left-to-right evaluation order, i.e. move the
division to the right.
* Avoid casting by making many of the internally used variables gauge_t.
They were derive_t in many cases for historical reasons that no longer
apply.
* Change the naming: Don't use the "swap" type for percentages (putting
the information that it *is* a percentage into the type instance) and
use "percent" instead.
