Dfp also had sqrt, reciprocal, and nextAfter with Dfp return types (as
well as a static copysign with a lower case s and two arguments, not the
classical non-static with upper case S and one argument). The other
functions like cos, sin etc also already existed but as static methods
in DfpMath.

Yes, I'll do that.
