Further _FloatN / _FloatNx type alias support will involve making
architecture-specific .S files use the common macros for libm function
aliases. Making them use those macros will also serve to simplify
existing code for aliases / symbol versions in various cases, similar
to such simplifications for ldbl-opt code.
The libm-alias-*.h files sometimes need to include <bits/floatn.h> to
determine which aliases they should define. At present, this does not
work for inclusion from .S files because <bits/floatn.h> can define
typedefs for old compilers. This patch changes all the
<bits/floatn.h> and <bits/floatn-common.h> headers to include
__ASSEMBLER__ conditionals. Those conditionals disable everything
related to C syntax in the __ASSEMBLER__ case, not just the problem
typedefs, as that seemed cleanest. The __HAVE_* definitions remain in
the __ASSEMBLER__ case, as those provide information that is required
to define the correct set of aliases.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for a representative set of
configurations (x86_64-linux-gnu i686-linux-gnu ia64-linux-gnu
powerpc64le-linux-gnu mips64-linux-gnu-n64 sparc64-linux-gnu) with GCC
6. Also tested with GCC 6 for i686-linux-gnu in conjunction with
changes to use alias macros in .S files.

The bits/floatn.h header currently only has defines relating to
_Float128. This patch adds defines relating to other _FloatN /
_FloatNx types.
The approach taken is to add defines for all _FloatN / _FloatNx types
known to GCC, and to put them in a common bits/floatn-common.h header
included at the end of all the individual bits/floatn.h headers. If
in future some defines become different for different glibc
configurations, they will move out into the separate bits/floatn.h
headers.
Some defines are expected always to be the same across glibc ports.
Corresponding defines are nevertheless put in this header. The intent
is that where there are conditionals (in headers or in non-installed
files) that can just repeat the same or nearly the same logic for each
floating-point type, they should do so, even if in fact the cases for
some types could be unconditionally present or absent because the same
conditionals are true or false for all glibc configurations. This
should make the glibc code with such conditionals easier to read,
because the reader can just see that the same conditionals are
repeated for each type, rather than seeing different conditionals for
different types and needing to reason, at each location with such
differences, why those differences are indeed correct there. (Cases
involving per-format rather than per-type logic are more likely still
to need differences in how they handle different types.)
Having such defines and conditionals also helps in incremental
preparation for adding _Float32 / _Float64 / _Float32x / _Float64x
function aliases. I intend subsequent patches to add such
conditionals corresponding to those already present for _Float128, as
well as making more architecture-specific function implementations use
common macros to define aliases in preparation for adding such _FloatN
/ _FloatNx aliases.
Tested for x86_64.

In math/math.h, __MATH_TG will expand signbit to __builtin_signbit*,
e.g.: __builtin_signbitf128, before GCC 6. However, there has never
been a __builtin_signbitf128 in GCC and the type-generic builtin is
only available since GCC 6. For older GCC, this patch defines
__builtin_signbitf128 to __signbitf128, so that the internal function
is used instead of the non-existent builtin.
This patch also changes the implementation of __signbitf128, because
it was reusing the implementation of __signbitl from ldbl-128, which
calls __builtin_signbitl. Using the long double version of the
builtin is not correct on machines where _Float128 is ABI-distinct
from long double (i.e.: ia64, powerpc64le, x86, x86_84). The new
implementation does not rely on builtins when being built with GCC
versions older than 6.0.
The new code does not currently affect powerpc64le builds, because
only GCC 6.2 fulfills the requirements from configure. It might
affect powerpc64le builds if those requirements are backported to
older versions of the compiler. The new code affects x86_64 builds,
since glibc is supposed to build correctly with older versions of GCC.
Tested for powerpc64le and x86_64.

This patch enables float128 support for ia64, so that all the
configurations where GCC supports _Float128 / __float128 as an
ABI-distinct type now have glibc support as well. bits/floatn.h
declares the support to be available for GCC 4.4 and later, which is
when the libgcc support was added. The removal of
sysdeps/ia64/fpu/k_rem_pio2.c is because the generic k_rem_pio2.c
defines a function required by the float128 code.
Tested (compilation only) with build-many-glibcs.py for ia64 (GCC 6
and GCC 7).
Given how long it is since libm-test-ulps has been updated for ia64, I
think truncating the file and regenerating it from scratch would be a
good idea when doing a regeneration to add float128 ulps. I expect
various ia64 libm issues (at least some already filed in Bugzilla) to
result in test failures even after ulps regeneration, but hopefully
the float128 code will pass tests as it's the same as used on other
architectures.
