expm1f-ieee: Work around AIX 7.2 bug.

* m4/expm1f.m4 (gl_FUNC_EXPM1F): Initialize gl_expm1f_required. If
module 'expm1f-ieee' is in use, check whether expm1f works according to
IEEE.
* m4/expm1f-ieee.m4: New file.
* modules/expm1f-ieee (Files): Add it.
(Depends-on): Update conditions.
(configure.ac): Invoke gl_FUNC_EXPM1F_IEEE.
* doc/posix-functions/expm1f.texi: Mention the AIX bug.
