    c: Adjust LDBL_EPSILON for C2x for IBM long double
    
    C2x changes the <float.h> definition of *_EPSILON to apply only to
    normalized numbers.  The effect is that LDBL_EPSILON for IBM long
    double becomes 0x1p-105L instead of 0x1p-1074L.
    
    There is a reasonable case for considering this a defect fix - it
    originated from the issue reporting process (DR#467), though it ended
    up being resolved by a paper (N2326) for C2x rather than through the
    issue process, and code using *_EPSILON often needs to override the
    pre-C2x value of LDBL_EPSILON and use something on the order of
    magnitude of the C2x value instead.  However, I've followed the
    conservative approach of only making the change for C2x and not for
    previous standard versions (and not for C++, which doesn't have the
    C2x changes in this area).
    
    The testcases added are intended to be valid for all long double
    formats.  The C11 one is based on
    gcc.target/powerpc/rs6000-ldouble-2.c (and when we move to a C2x
    default, gcc.target/powerpc/rs6000-ldouble-2.c will need an
    appropriate option added to keep using an older language version).
    
    Tested with no regressions for cross to powerpc-linux-gnu.
    
    gcc/c-family/
            * c-cppbuiltin.cc (builtin_define_float_constants): Do not
            special-case __*_EPSILON__ setting for IBM long double for C2x.
    
    gcc/testsuite/
            * gcc.dg/c11-float-7.c, gcc.dg/c2x-float-12.c: New tests.
