/**
 * @file
 * @ingroup api_moment
 * Rising-factorial moments from raw moments, via the cycle numbers.
 *
 * Templated port of matlab/src/api/moment/moment_upfactorial_from_raw.m. Every operation is integer
 * or rational, so the exact instantiation returns the transform with no
 * rounding at all. That matters more here than almost anywhere else in the API:
 * the alternating binomial sums of the moment conversions cancel
 * catastrophically in double arithmetic once the order grows.
