Implement casting to Decimal in DecimalObjectCast trait

  * "decimal" cast uses `number_format`, but we can utilize the `toFixed` method
  * provided by Decimal\Decimal to prepare the value.
  *
- * This trait does not provide a cast from string to Decimal; this should be
- * done manually using an accessor like `getPriceAttribute`, which should return
- * a new Decimal\Decimal using the precision of the column in the database.
+ * This trait extends the default behavior by allowing the precision and scale
+ * of the decimal value to be specified via the attribute's casting definition.
+ * For example, `decimal:2:8` would cast the attribute to a Decimal with 2 digits
+ * of scale and 8 digits of precision.
