[PATCH] Improve gen-libm-test.pl LIT() application


When bootstrapping float128, this exposed a number of areas where
the L suffix is incorrectly applied to simple expressions when it
should be applied to each constant in the expression.

In order to stave off more macros in libm-test.inc, apply_lit is
made slightly more intelligent.  It will now split most basic
expressions and apply LIT() individually to each token.  As noted,
it is not a perfect solution, but compromises correctness,
readability, and simplicity.

The above is problematic when the L real suffix is not the most
expressive modifier, and the compiler complains (i.e ppc64) or
silently truncates a value (i.e ppc64).

	* math/gen-libm-test.pl (apply_lit): Rewrite to apply
	LIT() to individual constants in simple expressions.
	(_apply_lit): Rename replaced version, and use it to
	apply to what appears to be a token.
