Summary
Add support for automatic parsing of Excel cells with General number format into numeric values
(e.g., "1E-3" becomes 0.001)
. This is controlled via the newparse_general_as_number
option in Creek::Book.Key changes
parse_general_as_number
option to Creek::Book and Sheet.BigDecimal
.Motivation
Without this change, numeric values formatted as General are returned as raw strings, which can lead to incorrect parsing or extra manual conversion. This feature improves developer ergonomics and data consistency.
