Add fused multiply-add instructions

This patch adds eight new primops that fuse a multiplication and an
addition or subtraction:

  - `{fmadd,fmsub,fnmadd,fnmsub}{Float,Double}#`

fmadd x y z is x * y + z, computed with a single rounding step.

This patch implements code generation for these primops in the following
backends:

  - X86, AArch64 and PowerPC NCG,
  - LLVM
  - C

WASM uses the C implementation. The primops are unsupported in the
JavaScript backend.

The following constant folding rules are also provided:

  - compute a * b + c when a, b, c are all literals,
  - x * y + 0 ==> x * y,
  - ±1 * y + z ==> z ± y and x * ±1 + z ==> z ± x.

NB: the constant folding rules incorrectly handle signed zero.
This is a known limitation with GHC's floating-point constant folding
rules (#21227), which we hope to resolve in the future.
