Fix ulps regeneration for *-finite tests.
On running tests after from-scratch ulps regeneration, I found that
some libm tests failed with ulps in excess of those recorded in the
from-scratch regeneration, which should never happen unless those ulps
exceed the limit on ulps that can go in libm-test-ulps files.

Failure: Test: atan2_upward (inf, -inf)
Result:
 is:          2.35619498e+00   0x1.2d97ccp+1
 should be:   2.35619450e+00   0x1.2d97c8p+1

The problem comes from the addition of tests for the finite-math-only
versions of libm functions.  Those tests share ulps with the default
function variants.  make regen-ulps runs the default tests before the
finite-math-only tests, concatenating the resulting ulps before
feeding them to gen-libm-test.pl to generate a new libm-test-ulps
file.  But gen-libm-test.pl always takes the last ulps value given for
any (function, type) pair.  So, if the largest ulps for a function
come from non-finite inputs, a from-scratch regeneration loses those
ulps.

This patch fixes gen-libm-test.pl, in the case where there are
multiple ulps values for a (function, type) pair - which can only
happen as part of a regeneration - to take the largest ulps value
rather than the last one.

Tested for ARM / MIPS / powerpc-nofpu.

	* math/gen-libm-test.pl (parse_ulps): Do not reduce
	already-recorded ulps.
	* sysdeps/arm/libm-test-ulps: Regenerated.
	* sysdeps/mips/mips32/libm-test-ulps: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/mips/mips64/libm-test-ulps: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/powerpc/nofpu/libm-test-ulps: Likewise.
