      Summary

      Add methods floorDivExact(int,int) and floorDivExact(long,long) to java.lang.Math and java.lang.StrictMath which throw an ArithmeticException when the dividend is MIN_VALUE and the divisor is -1. These methods behave with respect to the methods floorDiv() as the methods divideExact() behave with respect to the division operator /.

      Problem

      The methods divideExact() exist to catch numerical overflow of the division operator / but there are no such analogs for the floorDiv() methods.

      Solution

      Add floorDivExact() methods which behave exactly as the respective floorDiv() methods except when the dividend is MIN_VALUE and the divisor -1 in which case throw an ArithmeticException.
