Fix ldbl-128ibm tanhl inaccuracy (bug 18790).
ldbl-128ibm tanhl uses a too-small threshold to decide when to return
+/-1, resulting in large errors.  This patch changes it to a more
appropriate threshold (the requirement is for 2*exp(-2|x|) to be small
in terms of ulps of 1).

Tested for x86_64, x86 and powerpc.

	[BZ #18790]
	* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/s_tanhl.c (__tanhl): Increase
	threshold for returning +/- 1.
	* math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of tanh.
	* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
	* sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update.
