I used these shell commands:
../glibc/scripts/update-copyrights $PWD/../gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright
(cd ../glibc && git commit -am"[this commit message]")
and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:
copyright statement not found" for each of 7061 files FOO.
I then removed trailing white space from math/tgmath.h,
support/tst-support-open-dev-null-range.c, and
sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strlen-vec.S, to work around the following
obscure pre-commit check failure diagnostics from Savannah. I don't
know why I run into these diagnostics whereas others evidently do not.

This patch changes the exp10f error handling semantics to only set
errno according to POSIX rules. New symbol version is introduced at
GLIBC_2.32. The old wrappers are kept for compat symbols.
There are some outliers that need special handling:
- ia64 provides an optimized implementation of exp10f that uses ia64
specific routines to set SVID compatibility. The new symbol version
is aliased to the exp10f one.
- m68k also provides an optimized implementation, and the new version
uses it instead of the sysdeps/ieee754/flt32 one.
- riscv and csky uses the generic template implementation that
does not provide SVID support. For both cases a new exp10f
version is not added, but rather the symbols version of the
generic sysdeps/ieee754/flt32 is adjusted instead.
Checked on aarch64-linux-gnu, x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu,
powerpc64le-linux-gnu.
It is inspired by expf and reuses its tables and internal functions.
The error checks are inlined and errno setting is in separate tail
called functions, but the wrappers are kept in this patch to handle
the _LIB_VERSION==_SVID_ case.
Double precision arithmetics is used which is expected to be faster on
most targets (including soft-float) than using single precision and it
is easier to get good precision result with it.
