Sergei Zimmerman 9e51ae3cd0 sysdeps/ieee754: Fix remainder sign of zero for FE_DOWNWARD (BZ #32711)
Single-precision remainderf() and quad-precision remainderl()
implementation derived from Sun is affected by an issue when the result
is +-0. IEEE754 requires that if remainder(x, y) = 0, its sign shall be
that of x regardless of the rounding direction.

The implementation seems to have assumed that x - x = +0 in all
rounding modes, which is not the case. When rounding direction is
roundTowardNegative the sign of an exact zero sum (or difference) is −0.

Regression tests that triggered this erroneous behavior are added to
math/libm-test-remainder.inc.

Tested for cross riscv64 and powerpc.
