Fix ldbl-128ibm acoshl inaccuracy (bug 18019).
The ldbl-128ibm implementation of acoshl uses a cut-off of 0x1p28 to
determine when to use log(x) + log(2) as a formula. That cut-off is
too small for this format, resulting in large errors. This patch
changes it to a more appropriate cut-off of 0x1p56, adding tests
around the cut-offs for various floating-point formats.
Tested for powerpc. Also tested for x86_64 and x86 and updated ulps.
[BZ #18019]
* sysdeps/ieee754/ldbl-128ibm/e_acoshl.c (__ieee754_acoshl): Use
2**56 not 2**28 as threshold for log (2x) formula.
* math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of acosh.
* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
* sysdeps/i386/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Update.
* sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/libm-test-ulps: Likewise.
