Summary:
The Freescale e500v2 PowerPC core does not use a standard FPU.
Instead, it uses a Signal Processing Engine (SPE)--a DSP-style vector processor
unit, which doubles as a FPU. The PowerPC SPE ABI is incompatible with the
stock powerpc ABI, so a new MACHINE_ARCH was created to deal with this.
Additionaly, the SPE opcodes overlap with Altivec, so these are mutually
exclusive. Taking advantage of this fact, a new file, powerpc/booke/spe.c, was
created with the same function set as in powerpc/powerpc/altivec.c, so it
becomes effectively a drop-in replacement. setjmp/longjmp were modified to save
the upper 32-bits of the now-64-bit GPRs (upper 32-bits are only accessible by
the SPE).
Note: This does _not_ support the SPE in the e500v1, as the e500v1 SPE does not
support double-precision floating point.
Also, without a new MACHINE_ARCH it would be impossible to provide binary
packages which utilize the SPE.
Additionally, no work has been done to support ports, work is needed for this.
This also means no newer gcc can yet be used. However, gcc's powerpc support
has been refactored which would make adding a powerpcspe-freebsd target very
easy.
Test Plan:
This was lightly tested on a RouterBoard RB800 and an AmigaOne A1222
(P1022-based) board, compiled against the new ABI. Base system utilities
(/bin/sh, /bin/ls, etc) still function appropriately, the system is able to boot
multiuser.

the build on i386. Leave them in the source tree for regression tests.
The asm functions were always much less accurate (by a factor of more
than 10**18 in the worst case). They were faster on old CPUs. But
with each new generation of CPUs they get relatively slower. The
double precision C version's average advantage is about a factor of 2
on Haswell.
The asm functions were already intentionally avoided in float and long
double precision on i386 and in all precisions on amd64. Float
precision and amd64 give larger advantages to the C version. The long
double precision C code and compilers' understanding of long double
precision are not so good, so the i387 is still slightly faster for
long double precision, except for the unimportant subcase of huge args
where the sub-optimal C code now somehow beats the i387 by about a
factor of 2.
versions of fmodf() amd fmodl() on i387.
fmod is similar to remainder, and the C versions are 3 to 9 times
slower than the asm versions on x86 for both, but we had the strange
mixture of all 6 variants of remainder in asm and only 1 of 6
variants of fmod in asm.

Summary of changes:
- Replace all instances of FILES/TESTS with ${PACKAGE}FILES. This ensures that
namespacing is kept with FILES appropriately, and that this shouldn't need
to be repeated if the namespace changes -- only the definition of PACKAGE
needs to be changed
- Allow PACKAGE to be overridden by callers instead of forcing it to always be
`tests`. In the event we get to the point where things can be split up
enough in the base system, it would make more sense to group the tests
with the blocks they're a part of, e.g. byacc with byacc-tests, etc
- Remove PACKAGE definitions where possible, i.e. where FILES wasn't used
previously.
- Remove unnecessary TESTSPACKAGE definitions; this has been elided into
bsd.tests.mk
- Remove unnecessary BINDIRs used previously with ${PACKAGE}FILES;
${PACKAGE}FILESDIR is now automatically defined in bsd.test.mk.
- Fix installation of files under data/ subdirectories in lib/libc/tests/hash
and lib/libc/tests/net/getaddrinfo
- Remove unnecessary .include <bsd.own.mk>s (some opportunistic cleanup)
Document the proposed changes in share/examples/tests/tests/... via examples
so it's clear that ${PACKAGES}FILES is the suggested way forward in terms of
replacing FILES. share/mk/bsd.README didn't seem like the appropriate method
of communicating that info.

The testcase always fails today due to how C11 7.6.1/2 is interpreted
with clang 3.8.0 when combined with "#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON".
This testcase passes with clang <3.8.0 and gcc, so continue testing it
with those compiler combinations

The previous method would completely nerf CFLAGS once bsd.progs.mk had
recursed into the per-PROG logic and make the CFLAGS for tap testcases
to -O0, instead of appending to CFLAGS for all of the tap testcases.

There's no functional change with these testcases; they're purposely
being left in TAP format for the time being
Other testcases which crash on amd64/i386 as-is have not been
