Joseph Myers 1f18a1e6ab target/i386: reimplement fyl2x using floatx80 operations
The x87 fyl2x emulation is currently based around conversion to
double.  This is inherently unsuitable for a good emulation of any
floatx80 operation.  Reimplement using the soft-float operations,
building on top of the reimplementation of fyl2xp1 and factoring out
code to be shared between the two instructions.

The included test assumes that the result in round-to-nearest mode
should always be one of the two closest floating-point numbers to the
mathematically exact result (including that it should be exact, in the
exact cases which cover more cases than for fyl2xp1).
