### Arithmetic on a date or time leaked a CLR exception

`xs:date('2020-01-01') + 1` reported *"Unable to cast object of type 'PhoenixmlDb.Xdm.XsDate' to
type 'System.IConvertible'"* — a raw `InvalidCastException`, not an XQuery error, matching no code
a caller could catch. The valid date/time and duration combinations are matched earlier in each
operator, so anything of those types reaching numeric promotion has already failed to match one
and is a type error. Now XPTY0004.

Guarded in `ToDouble`/`ToFloat` and in `PromoteNumeric`, which every operator fall-through routes
through. Durations are deliberately not rejected: `duration * 2` is valid and passes the NUMBER
through that path.

```
xs:date(…) + xs:dayTimeDuration('P1D')   2020-01-02    unchanged
xs:dayTimeDuration('P1D') * 2            2.00:00:00    unchanged
xs:date(…) + 1                           XPTY0004      was InvalidCastException
xs:dateTime(…) * 2                       XPTY0004      was InvalidCastException
```

W3C XQTS 29,205 → **29,316 of 31,414 (93.32%)**. `InvalidCastException` 125 → 14. Unit suite 1542.

**The cause was not what the call sites suggested, and two guesses at them cost an hour.** Reading
four failing queries settled it in minutes:

```
xs:dayTimeDuration("PT1H") + xs:duration("P1D")     want XPTY0004
xs:duration("P1D") + xs:date("1997-01-01")          want XPTY0004
```

These use `xs:duration`, the ABSTRACT base type. F&O defines the duration operators only on
`xs:yearMonthDuration` and `xs:dayTimeDuration` — there is no `op:add-durations` — so mixing the
base type into arithmetic is a type error, and it was falling through to `Convert` instead.

Rejecting only the base type still left `dayTimeDuration + xs:duration` leaking, because that one
failed on the **TimeSpan** side. Reaching numeric conversion at all means every valid combination
in the caller has already failed to match, so a duration operand there is equally an error.
Rejecting the subtypes too took the cluster from 92 to 14.

| step | gain |
|---|---|
| `ToDouble`/`ToFloat` guard — date/time operands | +30 |
| `PromoteNumeric` guard | +1 |
| `xs:duration` base type | +41 |
| duration subtypes at numeric conversion | +39 |

Verified rather than assumed, because `duration * number` passes the NUMBER to `ToDouble` and had
to keep working:

```
xs:dayTimeDuration('PT1H') + xs:dayTimeDuration('P1D')      1.01:00:00   unchanged
xs:yearMonthDuration('P1Y') + xs:yearMonthDuration('P1M')   P1Y1M        unchanged
xs:date('2020-01-01') + xs:dayTimeDuration('P1D')           2020-01-02   unchanged
xs:duration('P1D') + xs:date('1997-01-01')                  XPTY0004     fixed
```

What remains is scattered rather than clustered: 14 cases across `fn-avg` (5),
`misc-CombinedErrorCodes` (4) and singles in the lookup and array paths.

### FIXED: the CLI serialized adaptive xs:double the wrong way

`xquery -o adaptive 'xs:double(41) + 1'` prints **42**. `XQueryResultSerializer.Serialize(item,
store)`, whose default method is Adaptive, returns **4.2e1** for the same value. Two
implementations of the adaptive output method, in the same estate, giving different answers.

`XQueryResultSerializer.FormatAdaptiveDouble` is deliberate and cites W3C Serialization 4.0 §6 —
its comment states that it is adaptive-scoped and intentionally does not touch the general double
formatter. The `xquery` CLI does not use it: that tool has its own `ResultSerializer`, which
predates it and formats doubles the fixed-point way.

Anything embedding the library gets `4.2e1`; anyone using the CLI gets `42`. Found because
`xquery-mcp` moved off PhoenixmlDb.XQuery 1.3.15, where the engine still returned `42` — its test
for that has been skipped with the finding recorded rather than adjusted, since adjusting it would
bake in whichever answer is current.

**The spec settles it, and the library was right.** W3C XSLT and XQuery Serialization 3.1 §10:

> An instance of `xs:double` is serialized by applying the function
> `format-number(?, '0.0##########################e0')`

with exponent-separator `e`, infinity `INF`, NaN `NaN`. So `4.2e1` is correct for the adaptive
method, and the CLI printing `42` was the defect — not the other way round, which is what the
vendored spec summary ("atomic values are output as their string representation") had suggested.

The same section says `xs:integer` and `xs:decimal` DO use `fn:string`, so `41 + 1` remains `42`
under every method. Only `xs:double` takes the exponential form, and only under adaptive.

`FormatAdaptiveDouble` is now public and the CLI delegates to it, so there is one implementation
rather than two. Pinned by `AdaptiveDoubleSerializationTests`, including `INF`/`-INF`/`NaN` and
negative zero.

```
                       adaptive   xml/text
xs:double(41) + 1       4.2e1      42
xs:double(0.5)          5.0e-1     0.5
41 + 1                  42         42
```
