Implement the internal feature `cfg_target_has_reliable_f16_f128`
Support for `f16` and `f128` is varied across targets, backends, and backend versions. Eventually we would like to reach a point where all backends support these approximately equally, but until then we have to work around some of these nuances of support being observable.
Introduce the `cfg_target_has_reliable_f16_f128` internal feature, which provides the following new configuration gates:
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f16)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f16_math)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f128)`
* `cfg(target_has_reliable_f128_math)`
`reliable_f16` and `reliable_f128` indicate that basic arithmetic for the type works correctly. The `_math` versions indicate that anything relying on `libm` works correctly, since sometimes this hits a separate class of codegen bugs.
These options match configuration set by the build script at [1]. The logic for LLVM support is duplicated as-is from the same script. There are a few possible updates that will come as a follow up.
The config introduced here is not planned to ever become stable, it is only intended to replace the build scripts for `std` tests and `compiler-builtins` that don't have any way to configure based on the codegen backend.

The second commit makes use of this config to replace `cfg_{f16,f128}{,_math}` in `library/`. I omitted providing a `cfg(bootstrap)` configuration to keep things simpler since the next beta branch is in two weeks.

Once UnwindContext sets the personality function it will need to define
a DW.ref.rust_eh_personality function which would cause a duplicate
definition if UnwindContext is called a second time.
