Various x86 / x86_64 versions of scalb / scalbf / scalbl produce
spurious "invalid" exceptions for (qNaN, -Inf) arguments, because this
is wrongly handled like (+/-Inf, -Inf) which *should* raise such an
exception. (In fact the NaN case of the code determining whether to
quietly return a zero or a NaN for second argument -Inf was
accidentally dead since the code had been made to return a NaN with
exception.) This patch fixes the code to do the proper test for an
infinity as distinct from a NaN.
(Since the existing code does nothing to distinguish qNaNs and sNaNs
here, this patch doesn't either. If in future we systematically
implement proper sNaN semantics following TS 18661-1:2014, there will
be lots of bugs to address - Thomas found lots of issues with his
patch <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2013-04/msg00008.html> to
add SNaN tests (which never went in and would now require significant
reworking).)
Tested for x86_64 and x86. Committed.
[BZ #16783]
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_scalb.S (__ieee754_scalb): Do not handle
arguments (NaN, -Inf) the same as (+/-Inf, -Inf).

* math/libm-test.inc (scalb_test_data): Add more tests.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_scalb.S: Handle NaN as first parameter correctly.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_scalbf.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/e_scalbl.S: Likewise.
* math/w_scalb.c: Don't use matherr except in SVID mode.
