[PATCH v3 2/2] float128: Add strfromf128, strtof128, and wcstof128 to the manual

["Gabriel F. T. Gomes" <gftg at linux dot vnet dot ibm dot com>]

Changes since v2:

  - Fix typos and grammatical errors.
  - Move @var{N} into the @code{} blocks
  - Remove @var{N} from the function names and return types in the
    @deftypefun and @deftypefunx blocks, because @var{N} causes errors in
    'make html' and 'make info' (make 'pdf' was working fine).

Changes since v1:

  - Added _FloatN and _FloatNx to the section that discusses C
    floating-point types in the section Mathematics.
  - Reworded the descriptions of strfromf128 etc. into descriptions of
    strfromfN etc., to ease the changes needed in the manual when more
    types from TS 18661-3 get added to glibc.

	* manual/math.texi (Mathematics): Add description for _FloatN and
	_FloatNx types and mentions that they are not support in glibc for
	any architecture, so far.
	* manual/arith.texi (wcstof, wcstold): Replace the mention to
	stdlib.h with wchar.h.
	(Parsing of Floats): Add descriptions for strtofN and wcstofN.
	(Printing of Floats): Add description for strfromfN.
