* Transpose table layout for improved memory access
* Use half-vector special comparisons for AdvSIMD
* Improve register use near special-case branches
- Due to the presence of a function call, return value would get
mov-d out of x0 in order to facilitate PCS. By moving the final
computation after the branch this can be avoided
Also change SVE routines to use overloaded intrinsics for readability.
Optimised implementations for single and double precision, Advanced
SIMD and SVE, copied from Arm Optimized Routines.
As previously, data tables are used via a barrier to prevent
overly aggressive constant inlining. Special-case handlers are
marked NOINLINE to avoid incurring the penalty of switching call
standards unnecessarily.

Replace the loop-over-scalar placeholder routines with optimised
implementations from Arm Optimized Routines (AOR).
Also add some headers containing utilities for aarch64 libmvec
routines, and update libm-test-ulps.
Data tables for new routines are used via a pointer with a
barrier on it, in order to prevent overly aggressive constant
inlining in GCC. This allows a single adrp, combined with offset
loads, to be used for every constant in the table.
Special-case handlers are marked NOINLINE in order to confine the
save/restore overhead of switching from vector to normal calling
standard. This way we only incur the extra memory access in the
exceptional cases. NOINLINE definitions have been moved to
math_private.h in order to reduce duplication.
AOR exposes a config option, WANT_SIMD_EXCEPT, to enable
selective masking (and later fixing up) of invalid lanes, in
order to trigger fp exceptions correctly (AdvSIMD only). This is
tested and maintained in AOR, however it is configured off at
source level here for performance reasons. We keep the
WANT_SIMD_EXCEPT blocks in routine sources to greatly simplify
the upstreaming process from AOR to glibc.
