This fixes several long-standing issues with x87 float emulation, in particular:
- 80 bit precision floats, fixing Haiku after its switch to musl libc (hrev53728)
- the precision bit in the x87 control word
- fucom and fucomi (unordered comparisons)
- aliasing of x87 and mmx registers
- rounding during conversion to integers
Operations that are not implemented in softfloat were implemented by
converting to f64 (sine, pow, ln, etc.) and thus operate with lower
precision.
Softfloat has been combined into a single file using a script [0] and checked into the repository.

The Uint8Array that stores the file data is usually larger than the file
size itself, to improve the amortized complexity of resizing the array.
When we previously switched over to using FileStorages, the method
fs#Write() was modified to retrieve only the subarray of the Uint8Array
that contains the file (i.e. excluding the unused padding at the end),
so appending to a file always tries to resize the array even though the
ArrayBuffer that backs it has enough space for the new data.
- Integrate new FileStorage interface with lib/filesystem.js
- Simplify the FileStorage interface with the intention that it only
serves read-only files.
While the original code would've worked for MemoryFileStorage, it will
not work for FileStorages that clone the data before saving (e.g.
IndexedDBFileStorage) as local changes won't be reflected onto the
storage class.
The "// jshint ignore:line" comments are pretty messy, so squint your eyes.
They're systematically placed, so we can regex it out when jshint's
new version finally arrives.
Using async/await instead of callbacks due to callback hell, and it also
helps minimising the diff)
