I submitted a GDB patch [1] to rename floatformats_ia64_quad to
floatformats_ieee_quad to reflect the reality, and then we can
clean up the related code.
As GDB Global Maintainer Tom Tromey said [2]:
These files are maintained in gcc and then imported into the
binutils-gdb repository, so any changes to them will have to
be proposed there first.
this GCC patch is preparation for the GDB patch, no functionality
change.

This change is motivated by a patchset that adds bfloat16 debugging
support for new avx512 instructions to GDB. The gdb thread can be found

Just like libiberty.h. So that C++ programs, such as GDB when built
as a C++ program, can use it.
