Last and certainly not least in the port of FDLIBM to Java, the transcendental 
methods for sin, cos, and tan.

Some more tests are to be written in the StrictMath directory to verify that 
the StrictMath algorihtm for sin/cos/tan is being used rather than a different 
one. However, I wanted to get the rest of the change out for review first.

The sin/cos/tan methods are grouped together since they share the same argument 
reduction logic. Argument reduction is the process of mapping an argument of a 
function to an argument in a restricted range (and possibly returning some 
function of the reduced argument). For sin, cos, and tan, since they are 
fundamentally periodic with respect to a multiple of pi, argument reduction is 
done to find the remainder of the original argument with respect to pi/2.
