with naive exp2l(x*log2e) the last 12bits of the result was incorrect
for x with large absolute value
with hi + lo = x*log2e is caluclated to 128 bits precision and then
expl(x) = exp2l(hi) + exp2l(hi) * f2xm1(lo)
this gives <1.5ulp measured error everywhere in nearest rounding mode

exp(inf), exp(-inf), exp(nan) used to raise wrong flags

exponents (base 2) near 16383 were broken due to (1) wrong cutoff, and
(2) inability to fit the necessary range of scalings into a long
double value.
as a solution, we fall back to using frndint/fscale for insanely large
exponents, and also have to special-case infinities here to avoid
inf-inf generating nan.
thankfully the costly code never runs in normal usage cases.

up to 30% faster exp2 by avoiding slow frndint and fscale functions.
expm1 also takes a much more direct path for small arguments (the
expected usage case).

infinities were getting converted into nans. the new code simply tests
for infinity and replaces it with a large magnitude value of the same
sign.
also, the fcomi instruction is apparently not part of the i387
instruction set, so avoid using it.
