Unfortunately C++20's from_chars doesn's support wide characters.
So I implemented my own from_chars called parse_double generically
as a template which can handle any ASCII-based character set whose
characters are integers.
Another requirement for me was that the code should support zero
-terminated strings as well as flat memory ranges with a beginning
and an end. This is done with a function-object which derermines
if a iterator points to a terminating character or address. The
default type for this function object is parse_never_ends(), which
results in any invalid character for the text text value to be a
termination character and as the zero is always an invalid charac-
ter for a floating point value parsing doens't end because the end
function object reports an end but because parsing can't find fur-
ther caracters.
And there's an overload of parse_double which is given a start and
and end iterator and this overload internally has its own end-func-
tion-object which compares the current reading position against the
end iterator.
My code scans the digits beyond the comma first and stores it in a
thead_local vector of doubles whose capacity only grows across mul-
tiple calls of my function for optimal performance. To maximize per-
formance I'm using my own union of doubles to suppress default-ini-
tialization of the vector's elements. The digits are appended until
their value becomes zero or there are no further digits.
The values in the suffix-vector are added in reverse order. If I'd
add them in forward order the precision would be less since there
would be mantissa digits dropped right from the final mantissa.
That's while there's the vector of doubles.
Each digit's valus is multiplied by a 10 ^ N value. This value is
calculated incrementally by successive / 10.0 or * 10.0 operations.
This successive calculations may lead to less precision than if
this value is calculated for each digit with binary exponentation.
So there's a precise mode with my code which is activated through
the first template parameter of my function which defaults to false.
With that each digit's value is calculated with binary exponenta-
tion of 10 ^ N, but this also gives less performance. With my test
code this gives up to four bits of additional precision.

So here's the code:

template<std::random_access_iterator Iterator>
requires std::integral<std::iter_value_t<Iterator>>
struct parse_result
{ std::errc ec;
Iterator next;
};

// parse ends at first invalid character, at least at '\0'
auto parse_never_ends = []( auto ) { return false; };

template<bool Precise = false, std::random_access_iterator Iterator,
typename End = decltype(parse_never_ends)>
requires std::integral<std::iter_value_t<Iterator>>

Do these function also have my performance and my precision ?

'My performance and my precision' should be less optimal than libc or libc++,
but should not be worse than yours. But these are implement problems, not the
main issue of text-number conversion functions. (I don't have cases that 2x
slower (for example) can really impact the performance of any of my application programs)
