Ian Romanick d1e0227ef1 soft-fp64/b2f: Reimplement using bitwise logic ops
This doesn't help a lot of shaders, but it helps those few a LOT.

This could also be implemented using bcsel.  That version is very
slightly worse because the generated SEL instruction wants to have two
immediate sources, so one of them usually needs an extra MOV instruction
to load.

Results on the 308 shaders extracted from the fp64 portion of the OpenGL
CTS:

Tiger Lake and Ice Lake had similar results. (Tiger Lake shown)
total instructions in shared programs: 929619 -> 928859 (-0.08%)

======================================================


Source
------

This repository lives at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa.
Other repositories are likely forks, and code found there is not supported.


Build & install
---------------

You can find more information in our documentation (`docs/install.html
<https://mesa3d.org/install.html>`_), but the recommended way is to use
Meson (`docs/meson.html <https://mesa3d.org/meson.html>`_):

.. code-block:: sh

  $ mkdir build
  $ cd build
  $ meson ..
  $ sudo ninja install


Support
-------

Many Mesa devs hang on IRC; if you're not sure which channel is
appropriate, you should ask your question on `Freenode's #dri-devel
<irc://chat.freenode.net#dri-devel>`_, someone will redirect you if
necessary.
Remember that not everyone is in the same timezone as you, so it might
take a while before someone qualified sees your question.
To figure out who you're talking to, or which nick to ping for your
question, check out `Who's Who on IRC
<https://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/WhosWho/>`_.

The next best option is to ask your question in an email to the
mailing lists: `mesa-dev\@lists.freedesktop.org
<https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev>`_


Bug reports
-----------

If you think something isn't working properly, please file a bug report

Contributing
------------

Contributions are welcome, and step-by-step instructions can be found in our
documentation (`docs/submittingpatches.html
