Improve tgamma accuracy (bug 18613).
In non-default rounding modes, tgamma can be slightly less accurate than permitted by glibc's accuracy goals. Part of the problem is error accumulation, addressed in this patch by setting round-to-nearest for internal computations. However, there was also a bug in the code dealing with computing pow (x + n, x + n) where x + n is not exactly representable, providing another source of error even in round-to-nearest mode; it was necessary to address both bugs to get errors for all testcases within glibc's accuracy goals. Given this second fix, accuracy in round-to-nearest mode is also improved (hence regeneration of ulps for tgamma should be from scratch - truncate libm-test-ulps or at least remove existing tgamma entries - so that the expected ulps can be reduced). Some additional complications also arose. Certain tgamma tests should strictly, according to IEEE semantics, overflow or not depending on the rounding mode; this is beyond the scope of glibc's accuracy goals for any function without exactly-determined results, but gen-auto-libm-tests doesn't handle being lax there as it does for underflow. (libm-test.inc also doesn't handle being lax about whether the result in cases very close to the overflow threshold is infinity or a finite value close to overflow, but that doesn't cause problems in this case though I've seen it cause problems with random test generation for some functions.) Thus, spurious-overflow markings, with a comment, are added to auto-libm-test-in (no bug in Bugzilla because the issue is with the testsuite, not a user-visible bug in glibc). And on x86, after the patch I saw ERANGE issues as previously reported by Carlos (see my commentary in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-01/msg00485.html>), which needed addressing by ensuring excess range and precision were eliminated at various points if FLT_EVAL_METHOD != 0. I also noticed and fixed a cosmetic issue where 1.0f was used in long double functions and should have been 1.0L. This completes the move of all functions to testing in all rounding modes with ALL_RM_TEST, so gen-libm-have-vector-test.sh is updated to remove the workaround for some functions not using ALL_RM_TEST. Tested for x86_64, x86, mips64 and powerpc. [BZ #18613] * sysdeps/ieee754/dbl-64/e_gamma_r.c (gamma_positive): Take log of X_ADJ not X when adjusting exponent.
