Description
As is, stream output for classes derived from
PolymorphicBasefirst converts to a string then adds the string to the stream output. This behavior prevents controlling the print precision of floating point values as they never see options likestd::fixedorstd::setprecision. This PR adds theadd_to_streammethod as an intermediate step that derived classes can use to more directly interact with the output stream, but defaults to the existing behavior for anything that doesn't implementadd_to_stream_.
