Paul E. Murphy e2239af353 Rename __LONG_DOUBLE_USES_FLOAT128 to __LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI
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 macro __LDOUBLE_REDIRECTS_TO_FLOAT128_ABI is used to determine the
choice of the underlying ABI of long double. It will always assume
a constant value for each translation unit.
If the value is non-zero, any API which is parameterized by the long
double type (i.e the scanf/printf family of functions or the explicitly
parameterized math.h functions) will be redirected to a compatible
implementation using _Float128 ABI via symbols suffixed with ieee128.
The mechanism this macro uses to acquire may be a function
of architecture, or target specific options used to invoke the
compiler. */
