C2X (current version in git, postdating the most recent public draft
available as a PDF on the WG14 website) adds the interfaces from TS
18661-4, other than the reduction functions, as unconditionally
required and visible in <math.h> for hosted implementations; the
__STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_FUNCS_EXT__ macro is not included in C2X at all
(as the reduction functions aren't included at all, expected to end up
in a version of the TS updated to be relative to C2X).
This patch updates the glibc headers accordingly, following the same
pattern used for 18661-1 functions. As the only 18661-4 functions
currently supported are the exp10 functions that have been in glibc
for a very long time, this means that in fact __GLIBC_USE
(IEC_60559_FUNCS_EXT) ends up being used only to determine the
definition of __GLIBC_USE_IEC_60559_FUNCS_EXT_C2X, not yet in any
headers other than bits/libc-header-start.h.
(I hope to add the other 18661-4 functions to glibc at some point; the
main complication is the current lack of MPFR support for many of
these functions.)
Tested for x86_64.

This macro is defined by TS 18661-3 for supporting the _FloatN and
_FloatNx types, as well as the functions suffixed with fN.

This patch implements support for the
__STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_FUNCS_EXT__ feature test macro, following the
__GLIBC_USE approach used for other ISO C feature test macros.
Currently this only affects the exp10 functions (which glibc has had
for a long time).
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).

This patch implements support for the __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_BFP_EXT__
feature test macro from ISO/IEC 18661-1:2014, following the
__GLIBC_USE approach now used for __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__. For this
macro, the relevant consideration is whether it is defined or
undefined when an affected header is included (not what its value is
if defined, and not whether it's defined or undefined when any other
unaffected system header is included).
Currently this macro only affects the issignaling macro and the nextup
and nextdown functions (so they can be enabled by defining this macro,
not just by defining _GNU_SOURCE as previously). Any further features
from this TS added in future would also be conditioned on this macro.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).

This patch implements support for the __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ feature
test macro from ISO/IEC TR 24731-2:2010, thereby implementing one
possible approach for supporting ISO C feature test macros.
Recall that, as described in
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-05/msg00486.html>, these
macros work based on the definition when affected headers are
included, so cannot be handled once when the first system header is
included because that might not be one of the headers the particular
macro in question affects.
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-05/msg00680.html> expresses
views on possible approaches for implementation and
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg00039.html> follows
up on that.
This patch arranges things so that the relevant condition is
__GLIBC_USE (LIB_EXT2), following one of the suggestions given.
Headers using these macros include <bits/libc-header-start.h>, which
in turn includes <features.h>. Headers must define
__GLIBC_INTERNAL_STARTING_HEADER_IMPLEMENTATION before including
<bits/libc-header-start.h>, to discourage inclusion outside glibc as
requested. __USE_GNU conditions on affected functions are changed to
__GLIBC_USE (LIB_EXT2), while it's added as an additional alternative
on the conditions for functions already enabled for some POSIX
versions.
It would be possible to convert existing __USE_* conditionals to
__GLIBC_USE (with the relevant __GLIBC_USE_* being defined in
<features.h> where __USE_* are presently defined), and so make them
typo-proof (given -Wundef -Werror in glibc builds) because __GLIBC_USE
is used with #if not #ifdef / #if defined.
No attempt is made to enforce the rule about diagnosing different
definitions of __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT2__ when affected headers are
included; such a diagnostic is incompatible with multiple-include
guards on the affected headers, unless compiler extensions are added
to support it.
As previously noted, glibc does not implement all features from TR
24731-2:2010: the functions aswprintf vaswprintf getwdelim getwline
are not in glibc, although they would be appropriate to add if someone
wished to do so. But I think it makes sense to support the feature
test macro if *any* of the controlled features are present in glibc.
Tested for x86_64 and x86 (testsuite, and that installed stripped
shared libraries are unchanged by the patch).
