5146356f5a Add fesetexcept.
TS 18661-1 defines an fesetexcept function for setting floating-point
exception flags without the side-effect of causing enabled traps to be
taken.

This patch series implements this function for glibc.  The present
patch adds the fallback stub implementation, x86 and x86_64
implementations, documentation, tests and ABI baseline updates.  The
remaining patches, some of them untested, add implementations for
other architectures.  The implementations generally follow those of
the fesetexceptflag function.

As for fesetexceptflag, the approach taken for architectures where
setting flags causes enabled traps to be taken is to set the flags
(and potentially cause traps) rather than refusing to set the flags
and returning an error.  Since ISO C and TS 18661 provide no way to
enable traps, this is formally in accordance with the standards.

The NEWS entry should be considered a placeholder, since this patch
series is intended to be followed by further such series adding other
TS 18661-1 features, so that the NEWS entry would end up looking more
like

* New <fenv.h> features from TS 18661-1:2014 are added to libm: the
  fesetexcept, fetestexceptflag, fegetmode and fesetmode functions,
  the femode_t type and the FE_DFL_MODE macro.

with hopefully more such entries for other features, rather than
having an entry for a single function in the end.

I believe we have consensus for adding TS 18661-1 interfaces as per
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-06/msg00421.html>.

Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 (hard float, and soft float to test the
fallback version), arm (hard float) and powerpc (hard float, soft
float and e500).
