C compilers may fold const values at compile time, so expressions
which try to elicit underflow/overflow by performing simple
arithemetic on suitable values will not generate the required
exceptions.
Work around this by replacing code which does these arithmetic
operations with calls to the existing __math_xflow functions that are
designed to do this correctly.

libm/math: Pass sign to __math_xflow instead of muliplying result
The IEEE spec for pow only has special case for x**0 and 1**y when x/y
are quiet NaN. For signaling NaN, the general case applies and these functions
should signal the invalid exception and return a quiet NaN.

I think I may have encountered a bug in the implementation of pow:
pow(-1.0, NaN) returns 1.0 when it should return NaN.
Because ix is used to check input vs 1.0 rather than hx, -1.0 is
mistaken for 1.0
The new implementation is provided under !__OBSOLETE_MATH, it uses
ISO C99 code. With default settings the worst case error in nearest
rounding mode is 0.54 ULP with inlined fma and fma contraction. It uses
a 4 KB lookup table in addition to the table in exp_data.c, on aarch64
.text+.rodata size of libm.a is increased by 2295 bytes.
