The CORE-MATH implementation is correctly rounded (for any rounding mode)

The code was adapted to glibc style and to use the definition of

only change is to handle FLT_MAX_EXP for FE_DOWNWARD or FE_TOWARDZERO.

The generic implementation calls __ieee754_exp2f and x86_64 provides
an optimized ifunc version (built with -mfma -mavx2, not correctly
rounded). This explains the performance difference for x86_64.
Same for i686, where the ABI provides an optimized __ieee754_exp2f
version built with '-msse2 -mfpmath=sse'. When built wth same
flags, the new algorithm shows a better performance:

C23 adds various <math.h> function families originally defined in TS
18661-4. Add the logp1 functions (aliases for log1p functions - the
name is intended to be more consistent with the new log2p1 and
log10p1, where clearly it would have been very confusing to name those
functions log21p and log101p). As aliases rather than new functions,
the content of this patch is somewhat different from those actually
adding new functions.
Tests are shared with log1p, so this patch *does* mechanically update
all affected libm-test-ulps files to expect the same errors for both
functions.
The vector versions of log1p on aarch64 and x86_64 are *not* updated
to have logp1 aliases (and thus there are no corresponding header,
tests, abilist or ulps changes for vector functions either). It would
be reasonable for such vector aliases and corresponding changes to
other files to be made separately. For now, the log1p tests instead
avoid testing logp1 in the vector case (a Makefile change is needed to
avoid problems with grep, used in generating the .c files for vector
function tests, matching more than one ALL_RM_TEST line in a file
testing multiple functions with the same inputs, when it assumes that
the .inc file only has a single such line).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.
The FSR version field is read-only and might be non-zero.
This allows math/test-fpucw* to correctly pass when the version is
non-zero.

WG14 decided to use the name C23 as the informal name of the next
revision of the C standard (notwithstanding the publication date in
2024). Update references to C2X in glibc to use the C23 name.
This is intended to update everything *except* where it involves
renaming files (the changes involving renaming tests are intended to
be done separately). In the case of the _ISOC2X_SOURCE feature test
macro - the only user-visible interface involved - support for that
macro is kept for backwards compatibility, while adding
_ISOC23_SOURCE.
Tested for x86_64.
Use the math_force_eval() macro to force the calculation to complete and
raise the exception.

On LEON, if the stfsr instruction is immediately following a floating-point
operation instruction in a running program, with no other instruction in
between the two, the stfsr might behave as if the order was reversed
between the two instructions and the stfsr occurred before the
floating-point operation.
Add a nop instruction before the stfsr to prevent this from happening.

We stopped adding "Contributed by" or similar lines in sources in 2012
in favour of git logs and keeping the Contributors section of the
glibc manual up to date. Removing these lines makes the license
header a bit more consistent across files and also removes the
possibility of error in attribution when license blocks or files are
copied across since the contributed-by lines don't actually reflect
reality in those cases.
Move all "Contributed by" and similar lines (Written by, Test by,
etc.) into a new file CONTRIBUTED-BY to retain record of these
contributions. These contributors are also mentioned in
manual/contrib.texi, so we just maintain this additional record as a
courtesy to the earlier developers.
The following scripts were used to filter a list of files to edit in
place and to clean up the CONTRIBUTED-BY file respectively. These
were not added to the glibc sources because they're not expected to be
of any use in future given that this is a one time task:

For j0f/j1f/y0f/y1f, the largest error for all binary32
inputs is reduced to at most 9 ulps for all rounding modes.
The new code is enabled only when there is a cancellation at the very end of
the j0f/j1f/y0f/y1f computation, or for very large inputs, thus should not
give any visible slowdown on average. Two different algorithms are used:
* around the first 64 zeros of j0/j1/y0/y1, approximation polynomials of
degree 3 are used, computed using the Sollya tool (https://www.sollya.org/)
* for large inputs, an asymptotic formula from [1] is used

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
On some architectures, the parts of math_private.h relating to the
floating-point environment are in a separate file fenv_private.h
included from math_private.h. As this is purely an
architecture-specific convention used by several architectures,
however, all such architectures still need their own math_private.h,
even if it has nothing to do beyond #include <fenv_private.h> and
peculiarity of including the i386 file directly instead of having a
shared file in sysdeps/x86.
This patch makes the fenv_private.h name an architecture-independent
convention in glibc. The include of fenv_private.h from
math_private.h becomes architecture-independent (until callers are
updated to include fenv_private.h directly so the include from
math_private.h is no longer needed). Some architecture math_private.h
headers are removed if no longer needed, or renamed to fenv_private.h
if all they define belongs in that header; architecture fenv_private.h
headers now do require #include_next <fenv_private.h>. The i386
fenv_private.h file moves to sysdeps/x86/fpu/ to reflect how it is
actually shared with x86_64. The generic math_private.h gets a new
include of <stdbool.h>, as needed for bool in some prototypes in that
header (previously that was indirectly included via include/fenv.h,
which now only gets included too late in math_private.h, after those
prototypes).
Tested for x86_64 and x86, and tested with build-many-glibcs.py that
installed stripped shared libraries are unchanged by the patch.

The powerpc and sparc bits/mathinline.h include inlines of fdim and
fdimf. These are not restricted to -fno-math-errno, but do not set
errno, and wrongly use ordered <= comparisons instead of the required
islessequal comparisons (this latter issue is latent on powerpc
because GCC wrongly uses unordered comparison instructions for
operations that should use ordered comparison instructions).
Since we wish to avoid such header inlines anyway, leaving it to the
compiler to inline such standard functions under appropriate
conditions, this patch fixes those issues by removing the inlines in
question (and thus removing the sparc bits/mathinline.h header which
had no other inlines left in it). I've filed
<https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85003> for adding
correct fdim inlines to GCC, since the function is simple enough that
a correct inline is a perfectly reasonable architecture-independent
optimization with -fno-math-errno and in the absence of implicit
excess precision.
Tested with build-many-glibcs.py for all its powerpc and sparc
configurations.
