Various remquo implementations produce a zero remainder with the wrong
sign (a zero remainder should always have the sign of the first
argument, as specified in IEEE 754) in round-downward mode, resulting
from the sign of 0 - 0. This patch checks for zero results and fixes
their sign accordingly.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.

zero result does not depend on the sign resulting from
subtraction.

* math/libm-test.inc (remquo_test_data): Add more tests.
Various remquo implementations, when computing the last three bits of
the quotient, have spurious overflows when 4 times the second argument
to remquo overflows. These overflows can in turn cause bad results in
rounding modes where that overflow results in a finite value. This
patch adds tests to avoid the problem multiplications in cases where
they would overflow, similar to those that control an earlier
multiplication by 8.
Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc.
