cmd/compile,cmd/internal/obj/ppc64: make math.Abs,math.Copysign instrinsics on ppc64x
This adds support for math Abs, Copysign to be instrinsics on ppc64x.
New instruction FCPSGN is added to generate fcpsgn. Some new
rules are added to improve the int<->float conversions that are
generated mainly due to the Float64bits and Float64frombits in
the math package. PPC64.rules is also modified as suggested
in the review for CL 63290.
Improvements:
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkAbs-16 1.12 0.69 -38.39%
BenchmarkCopysign-16 1.30 0.93 -28.46%
BenchmarkNextafter32-16 9.34 8.05 -13.81%
BenchmarkFrexp-16 8.81 7.60 -13.73%
Others that used Copysign also saw smaller improvements.
I attempted to make this work using rules since that
seems to be preferred, but due to the use of Float64bits and
Float64frombits in these functions, several rules had to be added and
even then not all cases were matched. Using rules became too
complicated and seemed too fragile for these.
