a5a337e55e [libc] Capture floating point encoding and arrange it sequentially in memory
Redefined FPBits.h and LongDoubleBitsX86 so its implementation works for the Windows
and Linux platform while maintaining a packed memory alignment of the precision floating
point numbers. For its size in memory to be the same as the data type of the float point number.
This change was necessary because the previous attribute((packed)) specification in the struct was not working
for Windows like it was for Linux and consequently static_asserts in the FPBits.h file were failing.

37afd67c38 [libc] Add few macro definitions to make it easy to accommodate Windows.
The new macro definitions have been used to add Windows specific
specializations.

fb706e086c [libc][NFC] Make conversion from FPBits to the float point type explicit.
This will help us catch errors like the ones fixed by the commit

6666e0d7a2 [libc] Make FPBits a union.
This helps us avoid the uncomfortable reinterpret-casts. Avoiding the
reinterpret casts prevents us from tripping the sanitizers as well.

bb8f2585c6 [libc] Add implementations of ldexp[f|l].
The rounding behavior of NormalFloat to float format has been changed
to round to nearest. Also, a bug in NormalFloat to subnormal number
conversion has been fixed.

87bf0b0ee9 [libc] Add a class called NormalFloat which represents normalized floats.
This class helps in dealing with normal and subnormal numbers uniformly.
Moreover, since this class has been designed to handle all floating
formats across platforms, it helps implement floating point functions in
a uniform manner.

The implementations of frexp and logb have been switched to use this new
class as it allows us to use just one implementation across all
different floating point formats.
