Use the generic `scalbn` to provide `f16` and `f128` versions, which
also work for `ldexp`.
This involves a new algorithm for `f16` because the default does not
converge fast enough with a limited number of rounds.
This function is significantly slower than all others so includes an
override in `EXTREMELY_SLOW_TESTS`. Without it, PR CI takes ~1hour and
the extensive tests in CI take ~1day.
Introduce a simple binary that can run arbitrary input against any of
the available implementations (musl, MPFR, our libm). This provides an
easy way to check results, or run specific cases against a debugger.
Examples:
$ cargo run -p util -- eval libm pow 1.6 2.4
3.089498284311124
$ cargo run -p util -- eval mpfr pow 1.6 2.4
