Some platforms may treat denormals as zero, on other platforms multiplication
with a subnormal is slower than dividing by a normal.

The idea is, that if an ieee 754 float is divided by a power of two, we can
turn the division into a cheaper multiplication. This function sees if we can
get an exact multiplicative inverse for a divisor and returns it if possible.
This is the hard part of PR9587.
I tested many inputs against llvm-gcc's frotend implementation of this
optimization and didn't find any difference. However, floating point is the
land of weird edge cases, so any review would be appreciated.

payloads. APFloat's internal folding routines always make QNaNs now,
instead of sometimes making QNaNs and sometimes SNaNs depending on the
type.

smallest-normalized-magnitude values in a given FP semantics.
Provide an APFloat-to-string conversion which I am quite ready to admit could
be much more efficient.

This also adds unit tests to APFloat that mainly tests the
string handling of APFloat, but not much else of it's api.
