Add intrinsics for float arithmetic with `fast` flag enabled
`fast` a.k.a UnsafeAlgebra is the flag for enabling all "unsafe"
(according to llvm) float optimizations.
See LangRef for more information http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#fast-math-flags
Providing these operations with less precise associativity rules (for
example) is useful to numerical applications.
For example, the summation loop:
let sum = 0.;
for element in data {
sum += *element;
}
Using the default floating point semantics, this loop expresses the
floats must be added in a sequence, one after another. This constraint
is usually completely unintended, and it means that no autovectorization
is possible.
