fix scalbn when result is in the subnormal range in nearest rounding mode scalbn could introduce double rounding error when an intermediate value and the final result were both in the subnormal range e.g. scalbn(0x1.7ffffffffffffp-1, -1073) returned 0x1p-1073 instead of 0x1p-1074, because the intermediate computation got rounded to 0x1.8p-1023. with the fix an intermediate value can only be in the subnormal range if the final result is 0 which is correct even after double rounding. (there still can be two roundings so signals may be raised twice, but that's only observable with trapping exceptions which is not supported.)

math: use float_t and double_t in scalbnf and scalbn remove STRICT_ASSIGN (c99 semantics is assumed) and use the conventional union to prepare the scaling factor (so libm.h is no longer needed)

math: excess precision fix modf, modff, scalbn, scalbnf old code was correct only if the result was stored (without the excess precision) or musl was compiled with -ffloat-store. now we use STRICT_ASSIGN to work around the issue. (see note 160 in c11 section 6.8.6.4)

math: fix scalbn and scalbnf on overflow/underflow old code was correct only if the result was stored (without the excess precision) or musl was compiled with -ffloat-store. (see note 160 in n1570.pdf section 6.8.6.4)

simplify scalbn*.c implementations The old scalbn.c was wrong and slow, the new one is just slow. (scalbn(0x1p+1023,-2097) should give 0x1p-1074, but the old code gave 0)
