I'd love to see less code duplication. It'd certainly be possible to refactor 
to one internal constructor `BigDecimal(CharSequence)` that the `String`-based 
constructors just delegates to, and then have the `BigDecimal(char[])` variants 
call with some wrapping (e.g. `this(CharBuffers.wrap(in, offset, len), mc)`). 

Such indirection might cost a few cycles per operation for the `char[]`-based 
constructors due the need to wrap the `char[]`, but I wonder how performance 
sensitive the `BigDecimal(char[], int, int)` paths really are once 
`BigDecimal(String)` takes another path.
