math: Use log2p1f from CORE-MATH
The CORE-MATH implementation is correctly rounded (for any rounding mode)
and shows better performance compared to the generic log2p1f.

The code was adapted to glibc style and to use the definition of
math_config.h (to handle errno, overflow, and underflow).

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 performance decrease for i686 is mostly due the use of x87 fpu,
when building with '-msse2 -mfpmath=sse:
