Add min and max operations to softfloat. This allows us to implement
propagation of NaNs and handling of negative zero correctly (unlike
the approach of having target helper routines return one of the operands
based on the result of a comparison op).

They are defined with the same semantics as the POSIX types,
so prefer those for consistency. Suggested by Peter Maydell.

The SoftFloat license requires "prominent notice that the work

for arm already, add such a notice to the sources.
softfloat-native.[ch] are not under the SoftFloat license

Make softfloat compile with USE_SOFTFLOAT_STRUCT_TYPES defined, by
adding and using new macros const_float16(), const_float32() and
const_float64() so you can use array initializers in an array of
float16/float32/float64 whether the types are bare or wrapped in the
structs.
[aurelien@aurel32.net: do the same for float16]

Correctly handle NaNs in float16_to_float32(), by defining and
using a float16ToCommonNaN() function, as we do with the other formats.

Fix various bugs in the single-to-half-precision conversion code:
* input NaNs not correctly converted in IEEE mode
(fixed by defining and using a commonNaNToFloat16())
* wrong values returned when converting NaN/Inf into non-IEEE
half precision value
* wrong values returned for conversion of values which are
on the boundary between denormal and zero for the half
precision format
* zeroes not correctly identified
* excessively large results in non-IEEE mode should
generate InvalidOp, not Overflow

Honour the default_nan_mode flag when doing conversions between
different floating point formats, as well as when returning a NaN from
a two-operand floating point function. This corrects the behaviour
of float<->double conversions on both ARM and SH4.

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.)
