Fix powf (close to -1, large) (bug 18647).

The flt-32 implementation of powf wrongly uses x-1 instead of |x|-1
when computing log (x) for the case where |x| is close to 1 and y is
large.  This patch fixes the logic accordingly.  Relevant tests
existed for x close to 1, and corresponding tests are added for x
close to -1, as well as for some new variant cases.

Tested for x86_64 and x86.

	[BZ #18647]
	* sysdeps/ieee754/flt-32/e_powf.c (__ieee754_powf): For large y
	and |x| close to 1, use absolute value of x when computing log.
	* math/auto-libm-test-in: Add more tests of pow.
	* math/auto-libm-test-out: Regenerated.
