As noted in the TODO comment, the sticky bit is only used
when the rounding bit is zero or the rounding mode is
ToNearestEven. This change makes that check explicit and
will eliminate half the sticky bit calculations on average
when rounding mode is not ToNearestEven.

Converting a big.Float value x to a float32/64 value did not correctly
round x up to the smallest denormal float32/64 if x was smaller than the
smallest denormal float32/64, but larger than 0.5 of a smallest denormal
float32/64.

When a big.Float is converted to a denormal float32/64, the rounding
precision depends on the size of the denormal. Rounding may round up
and thus change the size (exponent) of the denormal. Recompute the
correct precision again for correct placement of the mantissa.
Fixes#14553.

Float.Format supports the 'b' and 'p' format, both of which print
a binary ('p') exponent. The 'b' format always printed a sign ('+'
or '-') for the exponent; the 'p' format only printed a negative
sign for the exponent. This change makes the two consistent. It
also makes the 'p' format easier to read if the exponent is >= 0.

The existing code was incorrect for numbers that after rounding would
become the smallest denormal float32 (instead the result was 0). This
caused all.bash to fail if Float32() were used in the compiler for
constant arithmetic (there's currently a work-around - see also issue
10321.
This change fixes the implementation of Float.Float32 and adds
corresponding test cases. Float32 and Float64 diverge at this point.
For ease of review, this change only fixes Float32. Float64 will be
made to match in a subsequent change.
Fixes#10321.

NaNs make the API more complicated for no real good reasons.
There are few operations that produce NaNs with IEEE arithmetic,
there's no need to copy the behavior. It's easy to test for these
scenarios and avoid them (on the other hand, it's not easy to test
for overflow or underflow, so we want to keep +/-Inf).
Also:
- renamed IsNeg -> Signbit (clearer, especially for x == -0)
- removed IsZero (Sign() == 0 is sufficient and efficient)
- removed IsFinite (now same as !IsInf)

Float.Cmp used to return a value < 0, 0, or > 0 depending on how
arguments x, y compared against each other. With the possibility
of NaNs, the result was changed into an Accuracy (to include Undef).
Consequently, Float.Cmp results could still be compared for (in-)
equality with 0, but comparing if < 0 or > 0 would provide the
wrong answer w/o any obvious notice by the compiler.
This change wraps Float.Cmp results into a struct and accessors
are used to access the desired result. This prevents incorrect
use.

This is a fairly significant _internal_ representation change. Instead
of encoding 0, finite, infinite, and NaN values with special mantissa
and exponent values, a new (1 byte) 'form' field is used (without making
the Float struct bigger). The form field permits simpler and faster
case distinctions. As a side benefit, for zero and non-finite floats,
fewer fields need to be set. Also, the exponent range is not the full
int32 range (in the old format, infExp and nanExp were used to represent
Inf and NaN values and tests for those values sometimes didn't test
for the empty mantissa, so the range was reduced by 2 values).
The correspondence between the old and new fields is as follows.
Old representation:
x neg mant exp
---------------------------------------------------------------
+/-0 sign empty 0
0 < |x| < +Inf sign mantissa exponent
+/-Inf sign empty infExp
NaN false empty nanExp
New representation (- stands for ignored fields):
x neg mant exp form
---------------------------------------------------------------
+/-0 sign - - zero
0 < |x| < +Inf sign mantissa exponent finite
+/-Inf sign - - inf
NaN - - - nan
Client should not be affected by this change.
