Per C++17, a large number of higher mathematical functions (are available in C++ via <cmath>)[https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/header/cmath]. Values for infininty, not-a-number and similar are also part of the header, actually have been since C++11.

We can therefore

  • remove several work-arounds in numerics.h
  • remove corresponding CMake checks
  • possibly remove some GSL or Boost-dependencies
