Remarks
Checks if the specified year is a leap year.
A leap-year is a year of a longer length than normal. The exact meaning is determined by the chronology according to the following constraints. <ul> <li>a leap-year must imply a year-length longer than a non leap-year. <li>a chronology that does not support the concept of a year must return false. <li>the correct result must be returned for all years within the valid range of years for the chronology. </ul>
Outside the range of valid years an implementation is free to return either a best guess or false. An implementation must not throw an exception, even if the year is outside the range of valid years.
