* ld128/k_expl.h:
. Split out a computational kernel,__k_expl(x, &hi, &lo, &k) from expl(x).
x must be finite and not tiny or huge. The kernel returns hi and lo
values for extra precision and an exponent k for a 2**k scale factor.
. Define additional kernels k_hexpl() and hexpl() that include a 1/2
scaling and are used by the hyperbolic functions.
* ld80/s_expl.c:
* ld128/s_expl.c:
. Use the __k_expl() kernel.

* Use bit twiddling. This requires inclusion of math_private.h
and inclusion of float.h in s_roundl.c. Raise invalid exception.
* Use literal integer constants where possible. Let the compiler
do the appropriate conversion.
* In s_roundf.c, use an F suffix on float constants instead of
promoting float to double and then converting the result back
to float. In s_roundl.c, use an L suffix.
* In s_roundl.c, use the ENTERI and RETURNI macros. This requires
the inclusion of fpmath.h and on __i386__ class hardware ieeefp.h.

These are weak and so can be replaced by other versions in applications
that choose to do so, and will give a linker warning when used so that
applications that rely on the extra precision can avoid them.
Note that since the C/C++ specs only guarantee that long double has
precision equal to double, code that actually relies on these functions
having greater precision is unportable at best and broken at worst.
. Use integer literal constants instead of double literal constants.
* s_erff.c:
. Use integer literal constants instead of casting double literal
constants to float.
. Update the threshold values from those carried over from erf() to
values appropriate for float.
. New sets of polynomial coefficients for the rational approximations.
These coefficients have little, but positive, effect on the maximum
error in ULP in the four intervals, but do improve the overall
speed of execution.
. Remove redundant GET_FLOAT_WORD(ix,x) as hx already contained the
contents that is packed into ix.
. Update the mask that is used to zero-out lower-order bits in x in
the intervals [1.25, 2.857143] and [2.857143, 12]. In tests on
amd64, this change improves the maximum error in ULP from 6.27739
and 63.8095 to 3.16774 and 2.92095 on these intervals for erffc().
