math: Use exp2m1f from CORE-MATH

The CORE-MATH implementation is correctly rounded (for any rounding mode)
and shows better performance compared to the generic exp2m1f.

The code was adapted to glibc style and to use the definition of
math_config.h (to handle errno, overflow, and underflow).  The
only change is to handle FLT_MAX_EXP for FE_DOWNWARD or FE_TOWARDZERO.

The benchmark inputs are based on exp2f ones.

Benchtest on x64_64 (Ryzen 9 5900X, gcc 14.2.1), aarch64 (Neoverse-N1,
gcc 13.3.1), and powerpc (POWER10, gcc 13.2.1):

The generic implementation calls __ieee754_exp2f and x86_64 provides
an optimized ifunc version (built with -mfma -mavx2, not correctly
rounded).  This explains the performance difference for x86_64.

Same for i686, where the ABI provides an optimized __ieee754_exp2f
version built with '-msse2 -mfpmath=sse'.  When built wth same
flags, the new algorithm shows a better performance:
