In practice, this flag should be applied globally, but it makes a good
sanity check to ensure ibm128 and ieee128 long double files are not
getting mismatched. _Float128 files use no long double, thus are
always safe to use this option.
Similarly, when investigating the linker complaints, difftime
makes trivial, self contained, usage of long double, so thus it
is also explicitly marked as such.

This better resembles the default linking process with the gnulibs,
and also resolves the increasingly difficult to maintain
f128-loader-link usage on powerpc64le as some libgcc symbols are
dependent on those found in the loader (ld).
Ensure the correct ldouble abi flags are applied to ibm128 files and
nldbl files. Remove the IEEE options if used, and apply the flags
used to build ldouble files which are ibm128 abi.
nldbl tests are a little tricky. To use the support, we must remove
all ldouble abi flags, and ensure -mlong-double-64 is used.

With mathinline removal there is no need to keep building and testing
inline math tests.
The gen-libm-tests.py support to generate ULP_I_* is removed and all
libm-test-ulps files are updated to longer have the
i{float,double,ldouble} entries. The support for no-test-inline is
also removed from both gen-auto-libm-tests and the
auto-libm-test-out-* were regenerated.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
Since commit a3cc4f48e9 ("Remove
--as-needed configure test."), --as-needed support is no longer
optional.
The macros are not much shorter and do not provide documentary
value, either, so this commit removes them.
My recent nan-sign tests fail to build for powerpc64le with GCC 8
because of the special compile / link options needed there for any
test using _Float128. This patch arranges for these tests to be
handled on powerpc64le similarly to other such tests.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for powerpc64le.
[BZ #23303]
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/le/Makefile
(CFLAGS-tst-strtod-nan-sign.c): Add -mfloat128.
(CFLAGS-tst-wcstod-nan-sign.c): Likewise.
(gnulib-tests): Also add $(f128-loader-link) for
tst-strtod-nan-sign abd tst-wcstod-nan-sign.
The creation of the divergent sysdeps directory for powerpc64le

powerpc64le: Create divergent sysdep directory for powerpc64le.
allowed float128 to be enabled for powerpc64le (little-endian) and not
for powerpc64 (big-endian). Since the only intended difference between
them was the presence or absence of the float128 interface, the sysdeps
directory for powerpc64le explicitly reused the files from powerpc64
(through the use of Implies files).
Although this works, it also means that files under the powerpc64
directory might be preferred over files under powerpc64le. For
instance, on a build for powerpc64le with target set to power9, a file
from powerpc64/power5 might get built, even though a file with the same
name exists in powerpc64le/power8. That happens because the processor
hierarchy was only defined in the sysdeps directory for powerpc64 (and
borrowed by powerpc64le).
This patch fixes this behavior, by creating new subdirectories under
powerpc64 (i.e.: powerpc64/be and powerpc64/le) and creating new Implies
files to provide the hierarchy of processors for powerpc64 and
powerpc64le separately. These changes have no effect on installed,
stripped binaries (which remain unchanged).
Tested that installed stripped binaries are unchanged and that there are
no regressions on powerpc64 and powerpc64le.
