Make totalorder and totalordermag functions take pointer arguments.
The resolution of C floating-point Clarification Request 25 <http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2397.htm#dr_25> is that the totalorder and totalordermag functions should take pointer arguments, and this has been adopted in C2X (with const added; note that the integration of this change into C2X is present in the C standard git repository but postdates the most recent public PDF draft). This patch updates glibc accordingly. As a defect resolution, the API is changed unconditionally rather than supporting any sort of TS 18661-1 mode for compilation with the old version of the API. There are compat symbols for existing binaries that pass floating-point arguments directly. As a consequence of changing to pointer arguments, there are no longer type-generic macros in tgmath.h for these functions. Because of the fairly complicated logic for creating libm function aliases and determining the set of aliases to create in a given glibc configuration, rather than duplicating all that in individual source files to create the versioned and compat symbols, the source files for the various versions of totalorder functions are set up to redefine weak_alias before using libm_alias_* macros to create the symbols required. In turn, this requires creating a separate alias for each symbol version pointing to the same implementation (see binutils bug <https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23840>), which is done automatically using __COUNTER__. (As I noted in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-10/msg00631.html>, it might well make sense for glibc's symbol versioning macros to do that alias creation with __COUNTER__ themselves, which would somewhat simplify the logic in the totalorder source files.) It is of course desirable to test the compat symbols. I did this with the generic libm-test machinery, but didn't wish to duplicate the actual tables of test inputs and outputs, and thought it risky to attempt to have a single object file refer to both default and compat versions of the same function in order to test them together. Thus, I created libm-test-compat_totalorder.inc and libm-test-compat_totalordermag.inc which include the generated .c files (with the processed version of those tables of inputs) from the non-compat tests, and added appropriate dependencies. I think this provides sufficient test coverage for the compat symbols without also needing to make the special ldbl-96 and ldbl-128ibm tests (of peculiarities relating to the representations of those formats that can't be covered in the generic tests) run for the compat symbols. Tests of compat symbols need to be internal tests, meaning _ISOMAC is not defined. Making some libm-test tests into internal tests showed up two other issues. GCC diagnoses duplicate macro definitions of __STDC_* macros, including __STDC_WANT_IEC_60559_TYPES_EXT__; I added an appropriate conditional and filed <https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91451> for this issue. On ia64, include/setjmp.h ends up getting included indirectly from libm-symbols.h, resulting in conflicting definitions of the STR macro (also defined in libm-test-driver.c); I renamed the macros in include/setjmp.h. (It's arguable that we should have common internal headers used everywhere for stringizing and concatenation macros.)
