Stack overflow from promote_type(ArbFloat{128}, BigFloat)

[jlapeyre]

julia> promote_type(ArbFloat{128}, BigFloat)
ERROR: StackOverflowError:

You can see that the cause is that promote_rule is defined both ways, in one case ArbFloat{128} wins. In the other, BigFloat.

Version

• [7e558dbc] ArbNumerics v1.5.1
• Julia 1.10.5

Comments

This arose when I tried something like BigFloat(1) - ArbFloat(1).
