Revert r330897:
This was intended to be a non-functional change. It wasn't. The commit message was thus wrong. In addition it broke arm, and merged crypto related code.
Revert with prejudice.
This revert skips files touched in r316370 since that commit was since MFCed. This revert also skips files that require $FreeBSD$ property changes.
Thank you to those who helped me get out of this mess including but not limited to gonzo, kevans, rgrimes.

Add an alternative view of the bits in an 80-bit long double (64+16 instead of 32+32+15+1) on all arches that have such long doubles (amd64, ia64 and i386). Large objects should be be accessed in large units, and the 32+32+15+1[+padding] decomposition asks for almost the opposite of that, sometimes resulting in very slow accesses depending on how well the compiler ignores what we ask for and converts to the best units for the given machine. E.g., on Athlons, there is a 10-20 cycle penalty for accessing the middle 32-bit word immediately after an 80-bit store.
Whether actually using the alternative view is better is very machine- dependent. A 32+32+16 view is probably best with old 32-bit systems and gcc through 4.2.1. The compiler should mostly avoid the view and generate best accesses, but gcc-4.2.1 is far from doing that. I think 64+16 is best for now. Similarly for doubles -- they should be using 64+0 especially on 64-bit machines, but fdlibm uses 32+32 extensively for them. Fortunately, in 64-bit mode for doubles, gcc already ignores the 32+32-bit view and generates best accesses in many cases.

Implement fpclassify(): o Add a MD header private to libc called _fpmath.h; this header contains bitfield layouts of MD floating-point types. o Add a MI header private to libc called fpmath.h; this header contains bitfield layouts of MI floating-point types. o Add private libc variables to lib/libc/$arch/gen/infinity.c for storing NaN values. o Add __double_t and __float_t to <machine/_types.h>, and provide double_t and float_t typedefs in <math.h>. o Add some C99 manifest constants (FP_ILOGB0, FP_ILOGBNAN, HUGE_VALF, HUGE_VALL, INFINITY, NAN, and return values for fpclassify()) to <math.h> and others (FLT_EVAL_METHOD, DECIMAL_DIG) to <float.h> via <machine/float.h>. o Add C99 macro fpclassify() which calls __fpclassify{d,f,l}() based on the size of its argument. __fpclassifyl() is never called on alpha because (sizeof(long double) == sizeof(double)), which is good since __fpclassifyl() can't deal with such a small `long double'.
