   * \brief Convert between UTM/UPS and %MGRS

   *
   * This implementation has the following properties:
   * - The conversions are closed, i.e., output from Forward is legal input for
   *   Reverse and vice versa.  Conversion in both directions preserve the
   *   UTM/UPS selection and the UTM zone.
   * - Forward followed by Reverse and vice versa is approximately the
   *   identity.  (This is affected in predictable ways by errors in
   *   determining the latitude band and by loss of precision in the MGRS
   *   coordinates.)
   * - The trailing digits produced by Forward are consistent as the precision
   *   is varied.  Specifically, the digits are obtained by operating on the
   *   easting with &lfloor;10<sup>6</sup> <i>x</i>&rfloor; and extracting the
   *   required digits from the resulting number (and similarly for the
   *   northing).
   * - All MGRS coordinates truncate to legal 100 km blocks.  All MGRS
   *   coordinates with a legal 100 km block prefix are legal (even though the
   *   latitude band letter may now belong to a neighboring band).
   * - The range of UTM/UPS coordinates allowed for conversion to MGRS
   *   coordinates is the maximum consistent with staying within the letter
   *   ranges of the MGRS scheme.
   * - All the transformations are implemented as static methods in the MGRS
   *   class.
   *
   * The <a href="http://www.nga.mil">NGA</a> software package
   * <a href="http://earth-info.nga.mil/GandG/geotrans/index.html">geotrans</a>
   * also provides conversions to and from MGRS.  Version 3.0 (and earlier)
   * suffers from some drawbacks:
   * - Inconsistent rules are used to determine the whether a particular MGRS
   *   coordinate is legal.  A more systematic approach is taken here.
   * - The underlying projections are not very accurately implemented.
   *
   * Example of use:

     *   allowed range.
     * @exception GeographicErr if the memory for the MGRS string can't be
     *   allocated.
     *
     * \e prec specifies the precision of the MGRS string as follows:
     * - \e prec = &minus;1 (min), only the grid zone is returned
     * - \e prec = 0, 100 km
     * - \e prec = 1, 10 km
     * - \e prec = 2, 1 km
     * - \e prec = 3, 100 m
     * - \e prec = 4, 10 m
     * - \e prec = 5, 1 m
     * - \e prec = 6, 0.1 m
     * - &hellip;
     * - \e prec = 11 (max), 1 &mu;m
     *
     * UTM eastings are allowed to be in the range [100 km, 900 km], northings
     * are allowed to be in in [0 km, 9500 km] for the northern hemisphere and
     * in [1000 km, 10000 km] for the southern hemisphere.  (However UTM
     * northings can be continued across the equator.  So the actual limits on
     * the northings are [&minus;9000 km, 9500 km] for the "northern"
     * hemisphere and [1000 km, 19500 km] for the "southern" hemisphere.)
     *
     * UPS eastings/northings are allowed to be in the range [1300 km, 2700 km]
     * in the northern hemisphere and in [800 km, 3200 km] in the southern
     * hemisphere.
     *
     * The ranges are 100 km more restrictive than for the conversion between
     * geographic coordinates and UTM and UPS given by UTMUPS.  These
     * restrictions are dictated by the allowed letters in MGRS coordinates.
     * The choice of 9500 km for the maximum northing for northern hemisphere
     * and of 1000 km as the minimum northing for southern hemisphere provide
     * at least 0.5 degree extension into standard UPS zones.  The upper ends
     * of the ranges for the UPS coordinates is dictated by requiring symmetry
     * about the meridians 0E and 90E.
     *
     * All allowed UTM and UPS coordinates may now be converted to legal MGRS
     * coordinates with the proviso that eastings and northings on the upper
     * boundaries are silently reduced by about 4 nm (4 nanometers) to place
     * them \e within the allowed range.  (This includes reducing a southern
     * hemisphere northing of 10000 km by 4 nm so that it is placed in latitude
     * band M.)  The UTM or UPS coordinates are truncated to requested
     * precision to determine the MGRS coordinate.  Thus in UTM zone 38n, the
     * square area with easting in [444 km, 445 km) and northing in [3688 km,
     * 3689 km) maps to MGRS coordinate 38SMB4488 (at \e prec = 2, 1 km),
     * Khulani Sq., Baghdad.
     *
     * The UTM/UPS selection and the UTM zone is preserved in the conversion to
     * MGRS coordinate.  Thus for \e zone > 0, the MGRS coordinate begins with
     * the zone number followed by one of [C--M] for the southern
     * hemisphere and [N--X] for the northern hemisphere.  For \e zone =
     * 0, the MGRS coordinates begins with one of [AB] for the southern
     * hemisphere and [XY] for the northern hemisphere.
     *
     * The conversion to the MGRS is exact for prec in [0, 5] except that a
     * neighboring latitude band letter may be given if the point is within 5nm
     * of a band boundary.  For prec in [6, 11], the conversion is accurate to
     * roundoff.
     *
     * If \e prec = &minus;1, then the "grid zone designation", e.g., 18T, is
     * returned.  This consists of the UTM zone number (absent for UPS) and the
     * first letter of the MGRS string which labels the latitude band for UTM
     * and the hemisphere for UPS.
     *
     * If \e x or \e y is NaN or if \e zone is UTMUPS::INVALID, the returned
     * MGRS string is "INVALID".
     *
     * Return the result via a reference argument to avoid the overhead of
     * allocating a potentially large number of small strings.  If an error is
     * thrown, then \e mgrs is unchanged.
