Fabian Schriever cf1ef2dc5b Fix error in powf for x close to 1 and large y
This patch fixes the error found by Paul Zimmermann (see
https://homepages.loria.fr/PZimmermann/papers/#accuracy) regarding x
close to 1 and rather large y (specifically he found the case
powf(0x1.ffffeep-1,-0x1.000002p+27) which returns +Inf instead of the
correct value). We found 2 more values for x which show the same faulty
behaviour, and all 3 are fixed with this patch. We have tested all
combinations for x in [+1.fffdfp-1, +1.00020p+0] and y in
[-1.000007p+27, -1.000002p+27] and [1.000002p+27,1.000007p+27].
