Use intrinsics for `{f16,f32,f64,f128}::{minimum,maximum}` operations
This PR creates intrinsics for `{f16,f32,f64,f64}::{minimum,maximum}` operations.
This wasn't done when those operations were added as the LLVM support was too weak but now that LLVM has libcalls for unsupported platforms we can finally use them.
Cranelift and GCC[^1] support are partial, Cranelift doesn't support `f16` and `f128`, while GCC doesn't support `f16`.

remove 'unordered' atomic intrinsics
As their doc comment already indicates, these operations do not currently have a place in our memory model. The intrinsics were introduced to support a hack in compiler-builtins, but that hack recently got removed (see https://github.com/rust-lang/compiler-builtins/issues/788).
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.

simd intrinsics with mask: accept unsigned integer masks, and fix some of the errors
It's not clear at all why the mask would have to be signed, it is anyway interpreted bitwise. The backend should just make sure that works no matter the surface-level type; our LLVM backend already does this correctly. The note of "the mask may be widened, which only has the correct behavior for signed integers" explains... nothing? Why can't the code do the widening correctly? If necessary, just cast to the signed type first...
Also while we are at it, fix the errors. For simd_masked_load/store, the errors talked about the "third argument" but they meant the first argument (the mask is the first argument there). They also used the wrong type for `expected_element`.
I have extremely low confidence in the GCC part of this PR.
