PowerPC: Set/restore rounding mode only when needed
This patch helps some math functions performance by adding the libc_fexxx
variant of inline functions to handle both FPU round and exception set/restore
and by using them on the libc_fexxx_ctx functions. It is based on already coded
fexxx family functions for PPC with fpu.

Here is the summary of performance improvements due this patch (measured on a
POWER7 machine):
