math: new powf

from https://github.com/ARM-software/optimized-routines,
commit 04884bd04eac4b251da4026900010ea7d8850edc

POWF_SCALE != 1.0 case only matters if TOINT_INTRINSICS is set, which
is currently not supported for any target.

SNaN is not supported, it would require an issignalingf
implementation.

code size change: -816 bytes.
benchmark on x86_64 before, after, speedup:

-Os:
