Should this have an associated bugzilla entry?

-- 8< --
Both 'is_long_double' and 'is_binary128' (members of the 'printf_info'
structure) are used in __printf_fp to select the type of the
floating-point argument it receives in its 'args' parameter.  When the
argument is of double type, 'is_long_double' should be set to zero.
Similarly, when the argument is of long double type, 'is_long_double'
should be set to one.  More recently (since the addition of the
_Float128 API), the floating-point argument can also be of _Float128
type, then 'is_binary128' should be set to one.

In current __printf_fp, when 'is_binary128' is one, the floating-point
argument is treated as if it was of _Float128 type, regardless of the
value of 'is_long_double'.  This is not a problem for strfromd, because
strfromd always sets 'is_binary128' to zero.  However, it could be a
problem for users of printf_size, who could be expecting that
'is_long_double == 0' meant that the 'args' parameter was of double
type, regardless of the value of 'is_binary128'.

This patch modifies this behaviour in __printf_fp and adjusts
strfromf128 so that it always sets 'is_long_double' to one.

Tested for powerpc64le and x86_64.

	* stdio-common/printf_fp.c (__printf_fp_l): Also check the value
	of 'is_long_double' before reading the argument into a variable
	of _Float128 type.
	* stdio-common/printf_size.c (__printf_size): Likewise.
	* stdlib/strfrom-skeleton.c [__HAVE_DISTINCT_FLOAT128] (STRFROM):
	If 'is_binary128' is one, also set 'is_long_double' to one.

	* stdio-common/Makefile (test-srcs): Add tst-isbinary128
	(tests-special) Add $(objpfx)tst-isbinary128.out.
	($(objpfx)tst-isbinary128.out): New build and run rule.
	* stdio-common/tst-isbinary128.c: New file.
	* stdio-common/tst-isbinary128.sh: Likewise.

Well, the main use case of printf_size is being registered as a printf 
handler, not users creating their own printf_info structure.  I'm not 
convinced that calling printf_size with any form of printf_info structure 
that cannot be created by printf functions is valid.

It's certainly true that adding support for float128 versions of printf 
means a documentation patch is required to document is_binary128 in 
stdio.texi.  But why should the semantics be that is_long_double == 0 
overrides is_binary128 rather than is_binary128 being independent of 
is_long_double?  I'd have expected the documentation to say that 
is_binary128 is set alongside is_long_double in the case where printf has 
the 'L' modifier and is called from code with binary128 long double, on a 
platform where that's the third long double format supported by glibc, 
i.e. powerpc64le, but that printf will never set is_binary128 without 
is_long_double (and thus what printf_size does with that combination is 
basically irrelevant, but I'd think it natural for it to make is_binary128 
== 1 take precedence over is_long_double).

(So handlers could potentially, on powerpc64le, themselves deal with both 
ibm128 and binary128 long double, but if not trying to do so - if the 
handler is always built with the same long double format as the printf 
caller - they could just ignore is_binary128.)
