    lavu: replace int/float punning functions · 3383a53e

    The existing functions defined in intfloat_readwrite.[ch] are
    both slow and incorrect (infinities are not handled).
    
    This introduces a new header with fast, inline conversion
    functions using direct union punning assuming an IEEE-754
    system, an assumption already made throughout the code.
    
    The one use of Intel/Motorola extended 80-bit format is
    replaced by simpler code sufficient under the present
    constraints (positive normal values).
    
    The old functions are marked deprecated and retained for
    compatibility.
