TS 18661-1 generally defines libm functions taking sNaN arguments to
return qNaN and raise "invalid", even for the cases where a
corresponding qNaN argument would not result in a qNaN return. This
includes hypot with one argument being an infinity and the other being
an sNaN. This patch duly fixes hypot implementatations in glibc
(generic and powerpc) to ensure qNaN, computed by arithmetic on the
arguments, is returned in that case.
Various implementations do their checks for infinities and NaNs inline
by manipulating the representations of the arguments. For simplicity,
this patch just uses issignaling to check for sNaN arguments. This
could be inlined like the existing code (with due care about reversed
quiet NaN conventions, for implementations where that is relevant),
but given that all these checks are in cases where it's already known
at least one argument is not finite, which should be the uncommon
case, that doesn't seem worthwhile unless performance issues are
observed in practice.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.

* sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_hypot.c (__ieee754_hypot): Do not
return Inf for arguments Inf and sNaN.

* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-96/e_hypotl.c (__ieee754_hypotl): Likewise.
* sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/e_hypot.c (TEST_INF_NAN): Do not return Inf
for arguments Inf and sNaN. When returning a NaN, compute it by
arithmetic on the arguments.

* math/libm-test.inc (pow_test_data): Add tests of sNaN arguments.
Bug 15918 points out that the handling of infinities in hypotf can be
simplified: it's enough to return the absolute value of the infinite
argument without first comparing it to the other argument and possibly
returning that other argument's absolute value. This patch makes that
cleanup (which should not change how hypotf behaves on any input).
Tested for x86_64.
