[roll] Roll llvm-project/libc [libc] Improve the performance of exp2f.

Reduce the range-reduction table size from 128 entries down to 64 entries, and
reduce the polynomial's degree from 6 down to 4.

Currently we use a degree-6 minimax polynomial on an interval of length 2^-7
around 0 to compute exp2f.  Based on the suggestion of @santoshn and the RLIBM
project (https://github.com/rutgers-apl/rlibm-prog/blob/main/libm/float/exp2.c)
it is possible to have a good polynomial of degree-4 on a subinterval of length
2^(-6) to approximate 2^x.

We did try to either reduce the degree of the polynomial down to 3 or increase
the interval size to 2^(-5), but in both cases the number of exceptional values
exploded.  So we settle with using a degree-4 polynomial of the interval of
size 2^(-6) around 0.

Integration

This repository contains Fuchsia's Global Integration manifest files.

Making changes

All changes should be made to the internal version of this repository. Our infrastructure automatically updates this version when the internal one changes.

Currently all changes must be made by a Google employee. Non-Google employees wishing to make a change can ask for assistance via the IRC channel #fuchsia on Freenode.

Obtaining the source

First install Jiri.

Next run:

$ jiri init
$ jiri import minimal https://fuchsia.googlesource.com/integration
$ jiri update

Third party

Third party projects should have their own subdirectory in ./third_party.
