Prepare vfprintf to use __printf_fp/__printf_fphex with float128 arg

On powerpc64le, long double can currently take two formats: the same as
double (-mlong-double-64) or IBM Extended Precision (default with
-mlong-double-128 or explicitly with -mabi=ibmlongdouble).  The internal
implementation of printf-like functions is aware of these possibilities
and properly parses floating-point values from the variable arguments,
before making calls to __printf_fp and __printf_fphex.  These functions
are also aware of the format possibilities and know how to convert both
formats to string.

When library support for TS 18661-3 was added to glibc, __printf_fp and
__printf_fphex were extended with support for an additional type
(__float128/_Float128) with a different format (binary128).  Now that
powerpc64le is getting support for its third long double format, and
taking into account that this format is the same as the format of
__float128/_Float128, this patch extends __vfprintf_internal to properly
call __printf_fp and __printf_fphex with this new format.

Tested for powerpc64le (with additional patches to actually enable the
use of these preparations) and for x86_64.
