Improve the commentary to aid future developers who will stumble
upon this novel, yet not always perfect, mechanism to support
alternative formats for long double.
Likewise, rename __LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128 to
__LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI now that development work
has settled down. The command used was
git grep -l __LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128 ':!./ChangeLog*' | \
xargs sed -i 's/__LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128/__LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI/g'

The ldbl redirects for ieee128 have some jagged edges when
inspecting and manipulating symbols directly.
e.g asprintf is unconditionally redirected to __asprintfieee128
thus any tests relying on GCC's redirect behavior will encounter
problems if they inspect the symbol names too closely.
I've mitigated tests which expose the limitations of the
ldbl -> f128 redirects by giving them knowledge about the
redirected symbol names.
Hopefully there isn't much user code which depends on this
implementation specific behavior.
