powerpc: Remove optimized isnan

The powerpc isnan optimizations are not really a gain:

  - GCC will call libm iff -fsignaling-nans is used. This usage pattern
    is usually not performance oriented and for such calls PLT overhead
    should dominate execution time.

  - The power5, power6, and power6x are just micro-optimization to
    improve the Load-Hit-Store hazards from floating-point to general
    register transfer, and current GCC already has support to minimize
    it by inserting either extra nops or group dispatch instructions.

  - The power7 uses ftdiv to optimize for some input patterns, but at
    cost of others.  Comparing against generic C implementation built
    for powerpc-linux-gnu-power4 (which uses the hp-timing support on
    benchtests):

    - Generic sysdeps/ieee754 implementation:
      "isnan": {
       "": {
        "duration": 4.98415e+09,
        "iterations": 2.34516e+09,
        "max": 45.925,
        "min": 2.052,
        "mean": 2.12529
       },
       "INF": {
        "duration": 4.74057e+09,
        "iterations": 1.69761e+09,
        "max": 91.01,
        "min": 2.052,
        "mean": 2.79249
       },
       "NAN": {
        "duration": 4.74071e+09,
        "iterations": 1.68768e+09,
        "max": 282.343,
        "min": 2.052,
        "mean": 2.809
       }
      }

    - power7 optimized one:
    $ ./testrun.sh benchtests/bench-isnan
      "isnan": {
       "": {
        "duration": 4.96842e+09,
        "iterations": 2.56297e+09,
        "max": 50.048,
        "min": 1.872,
        "mean": 1.93854
       },
       "INF": {
        "duration": 4.76648e+09,
        "iterations": 1.54213e+09,
        "max": 373.408,
        "min": 2.661,
        "mean": 3.09084
       },
       "NAN": {
        "duration": 4.76845e+09,
        "iterations": 1.54515e+09,
        "max": 51.016,
        "min": 2.736,
        "mean": 3.08607
       }
      }

    So it basically optimizes marginally for normal numbers while
    increasing the latency for other kind of FP.

  - The generic implementation requires getting the floating point
    status, disable the invalid operation bit, and restore the
    floating-point status.  Each operation is costly and requires
    flushing the FP pipeline.

    Using the same scenarion for the previous analysis:

      "isnan": {
       "": {
        "duration": 5.08284e+09,
        "iterations": 6.2898e+08,
        "max": 41.844,
        "min": 8.057,
        "mean": 8.08108
       },
       "INF": {
        "duration": 4.97904e+09,
        "iterations": 6.16176e+08,
        "max": 39.661,
        "min": 8.057,
        "mean": 8.08055
       },
       "NAN": {
        "duration": 4.98695e+09,
        "iterations": 5.95866e+08,
        "max": 29.728,
        "min": 8.345,
        "mean": 8.36925
       }
      }

  - The power8 implementation is just the generic implementation using
    ISA 2.07 mfvsrd instruction (which GCC uses for generic implementation).
    So generic implementation is the best option for powerpc64le.
