Prepare vfprintf to use __printf_fp/__printf_fphex with float128 arg
On powerpc64le, long double can currently take two formats: the same as double (-mlong-double-64) or IBM Extended Precision (default with -mlong-double-128 or explicitly with -mabi=ibmlongdouble). The internal implementation of printf-like functions is aware of these possibilities and properly parses floating-point values from the variable arguments, before making calls to __printf_fp and __printf_fphex. These functions are also aware of the format possibilities and know how to convert both formats to string. When library support for TS 18661-3 was added to glibc, __printf_fp and __printf_fphex were extended with support for an additional type (__float128/_Float128) with a different format (binary128). Now that powerpc64le is getting support for its third long double format, and taking into account that this format is the same as the format of __float128/_Float128, this patch extends __vfprintf_internal to properly call __printf_fp and __printf_fphex with this new format. Tested for powerpc64le (with additional patches to actually enable the use of these preparations) and for x86_64. Reviewed-by: Adhemerval Zanella <adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org>
