I posted this patch at the end of GCC 8 as a RFC.  Now that we are in GCC 9, I
would like to repose it.  Sorry to spam some of you.  It is unclear whom the
reviewers for things like target hooks and basic mode handling are.

Here is the original patch.
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2018-04/msg00764.html

PowerPC has 3 different 128-bit floating point types (KFmode, IFmode, and
TFmode).  We are in the process of migrating long double from IBM extended
double to IEEE 128-bit floating point.

    *   IFmode is IBM extended double (__ibm128)
    *   KFmode is IEEE 128-bit floating point (__float128, _Float128N)
    *   TFmode is whatever long double maps to

If we are compiling for a power8 system (which does not have hardware IEEE
128-bit floating point), the current system works because each of the 3 modes
do not have hardware support.

If we are compiling for a power9 system and long double is IBM extended double,
again things are fine.

However, if we compiling for power9 and we've flipped the default for long
double to be IEEE 128-bit floating point, then the code to support __ibm128
breaks.  The machine independent portions of the mode handling says oh, there
is hardware to support TFmode operations, lets widen the type to TFmode and do
those operations.  However, converting IFmode to TFmode is not cheap, it has to
be done in a function call.

This patch adds a new target hook, that if it is overriden, the backend can say
don't automatically widen this type to that type.  The PowerPC port defines the
target hook so that it doesn't automatically convert IBM extended double to
IEEE 128-bit and vice versa.

This patch goes through all of the places that calls GET_MODE_WIDER_MODE and
then calls the target hook.  Now, the PowerPC only needs to block certain
floating point widenings.  Several of the changes are to integer widenings, and
if desired, we could restrict the changes to just floating point types.
However, there might be other ports that need the flexibility for other types.

I have tried various other approprches to fix this problem, and so far, I have
not been able to come up with a PowerPC back-end only solution that works.

Alternatively, Segher has suggested that the call to the target hook be in
GET_MODE_WIDER_MODE and GET_MODE_2XWIDER_MODE (plus any places where we access
the mode_wider array direcly).

I have built little endian PowerPC builds with this patch, and I have verified
that it does work.  I have tested the same patch in April on a big endian
PowerPC system and x86_64 and it worked there also.

Can I check in this patch as is (I will verify x86/PowerPC big endian still
works before checkin).  Or would people prefer modifications to the patch?
