math: new exp2f and expf

from https://github.com/ARM-software/optimized-routines,
commit 04884bd04eac4b251da4026900010ea7d8850edc

In expf TOINT_INTRINSICS is kept, but is unused, it would require support
for __builtin_round and __builtin_lround as single instruction.

code size change: +94 bytes.
benchmark on x86_64 before, after, speedup:

-Os:
  expf rthruput:   9.19 ns/call  8.11 ns/call 1.13x

- * exp2f(x): compute the base 2 exponential of x
- *
- * Accuracy: Peak error < 0.501 ulp; location of peak: -0.030110927.
- *
- * Method: (equally-spaced tables)
- *
- *   Reduce x:
- *     x = k + y, for integer k and |y| <= 1/2.
- *     Thus we have exp2f(x) = 2**k * exp2(y).
- *
- *   Reduce y:
- *     y = i/TBLSIZE + z for integer i near y * TBLSIZE.
- *     Thus we have exp2(y) = exp2(i/TBLSIZE) * exp2(z),
- *     with |z| <= 2**-(TBLSIZE+1).
- *
- *   We compute exp2(i/TBLSIZE) via table lookup and exp2(z) via a
- *   degree-4 minimax polynomial with maximum error under 1.4 * 2**-33.
- *   Using double precision for everything except the reduction makes
- *   roundoff error insignificant and simplifies the scaling step.
- *
- *   This method is due to Tang, but I do not use his suggested parameters:
