Changes to ordinal functions
The ordinal functions are first, second, third, ..., last, etc.
There are two changes of interest:
| Change1 | Ordinals are now of type native! not action!
|
| Reason | Polymorphic application of these functions across all series datatypes improves the implementation.
|
And:
| Change2 | Ordinals no longer throw an error on a past-end condition.
|
| Reason | Behavior is now similar to pick, returning none when past end. Experience has shown that making the ordinals throw errors when past-end was not convenient for the most common coding practices.
