// __ieee754_atanh(x)
// Method :
//	1. Reduce x to positive by atanh(-x) = -atanh(x)
//	2. For x>=0.5
//	            1              2x                          x
//	atanh(x) = --- * log(1 + -------) = 0.5 * log1p(2 * --------)
//	            2             1 - x                      1 - x
//
//	For x<0.5
//	atanh(x) = 0.5*log1p(2x+2x*x/(1-x))
//
// Special cases:
//	atanh(x) is NaN if |x| > 1 with signal;
//	atanh(NaN) is that NaN with no signal;
//	atanh(+-1) is +-INF with signal.
//

// Atanh returns the inverse hyperbolic tangent of x.
//
// Special cases are:
//	Atanh(1) = +Inf
//	Atanh(±0) = ±0
//	Atanh(-1) = -Inf
//	Atanh(x) = NaN if x < -1 or x > 1
//	Atanh(NaN) = NaN
