Add a float16 type to softfloat, rather than using bits16 directly.
Also add the missing functions float16_is_quiet_nan(),
float16_is_signaling_nan() and float16_maybe_silence_nan(),
which are needed for the float16 conversion routines.

Add support to softfloat for flushing input denormal float32 and float64
to zero. softfloat's existing 'flush_to_zero' flag only flushes denormals
to zero on output. Some CPUs need input denormals to be flushed before
processing as well. Implement this, using a new status flag to enable it
and a new exception status bit to indicate when it has happened. Existing
CPUs should be unaffected as there is no behaviour change unless the
mode is enabled.

The ARM architecture needs float/double to 16 bit integer conversions.
(The 32 bit versions aren't sufficient because of the requirement
to saturate at 16 bit MAXINT/MININT and to get the exception bits right.)
