Refactor float_t, double_t information into bits/flt-eval-method.h.
At present, definitions of float_t and double_t are split among many bits/mathdef.h headers. For all but three architectures, these types are float and double. Furthermore, if you assume __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ to be defined, that provides a more generic way of determining the correct values of these typedefs. Defining these typedefs more generally based on __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ was previously proposed by Paul Eggert in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-02/msg00002.html>. This patch refactors things in the way I proposed in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg00745.html>. A new header bits/flt-eval-method.h defines a single macro, __GLIBC_FLT_EVAL_METHOD, which is then used by math.h to define float_t and double_t. The default is based on __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ (although actually a default to 0 would have the same effect for current ports, because ports where values other than 0 or 16 are possible all have their own headers). To avoid changing the existing semantics in any case, including for compilers not defining __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__, architecture-specific files are then added for m68k, s390, x86 which replicate the existing semantics. At least with __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ values possible with GCC, there should be no change to the choices of float_t and double_t for any supported configuration. Architecture maintainer notes: * m68k: sysdeps/m68k/m680x0/bits/flt-eval-method.h always defines __GLIBC_FLT_EVAL_METHOD to 2 to replicate the existing logic. But actually GCC defines __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ to 0 if TARGET_68040. It might make sense to make the header prefer to base things on __FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ if defined, like the x86 version, and so make the choices of these types more accurate (with a NEWS entry as for the other changes to these types on particular architectures). * s390: sysdeps/s390/bits/flt-eval-method.h always defines __GLIBC_FLT_EVAL_METHOD to 1 to replicate the existing logic. As previously discussed, it might make sense in coordination with GCC to eliminate the historic mistake, avoid excess precision in the -fexcess-precision=standard case and make the typedefs match (with a NEWS entry, again). Tested for x86-64 and x86.
