It makes me a big sad that we need to do this, but the _S_cast_flt
function should get optimized away completely on targets where it
doesn't need to do anything special.

As far as I know only RISC-V needs special handling, but we could extend
it to other targets if needed.

Tested x86_64-linux.

LWG 117 specifies that inserting a float into an ostream should cast it
to double, because there's no std::num_put::put member that takes a
float. However, on RISC-V converting a NaN float to double loses the
sign, which means that negative NaN floats are printed as positive.

This has been reported as LWG 4101 and there is good support for fixing
the standard to preserve the sign bit when printing negative NaN values.

This change uses copysign((double)f, (double)std::bit_cast<int>(f)) to
get a double that preserves the sign.

The inserters for extended floating-point types need the same treatment,
so add a new _S_cast_flt helper to do the signbit-preserving conversion
generically.

So far only RISC-V has been confirmed to need this treatment, but we
might need to extend it to other targets later.

libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

	PR libstdc++/113578
	* include/std/ostream (_S_cast_flt): New static member function
	to restore signbit after casting to double or long double.
	(operator<<(float), operator<<(_Float16), operator<<(_Float32))
	(operator<<(_Float64), operator(_Float128))
	(operator<<(__bfloat16_t)): Use _S_cast_flt.
	testsuite/27_io/basic_ostream/inserters_arithmetic/lwg4101.cc:
	New test.
