feat: add C implementation for math/base/special/heaviside

@@ -214,6 +214,8 @@ The `continuity` parameter may be one of the following values:
 -   `STDLIB_BASE_HEAVISIDE_CONTINUITY_RIGHT_CONTINUOUS`: if `x == 0`, the function returns `1.0`.
 -   `STDLIB_BASE_HEAVISIDE_CONTINUITY_DISCONTINUOUS`: if `x == 0`, the function returns `NaN`.
 
+If not provided a valid `continuity` parameter, the function returns `NaN` for `x == 0`, behaving like the discontinuous case.
