Brian Kessler 98521a5a8f math: implement trignometric range reduction for huge arguments
This change implements Payne-Hanek range reduction by Pi/4
to properly calculate trigonometric functions of huge arguments.

The implementation is based on:

"ARGUMENT REDUCTION FOR HUGE ARGUMENTS: Good to the Last Bit"
K. C. Ng et al, March 24, 1992

The major difference with the reference is that the simulated
multi-precision calculation of x*B is implemented using 64-bit
integer arithmetic rather than floating point to ease extraction
of the relevant bits of 4/Pi.

The assembly implementations for 386 were removed since the trigonometric
instructions only use a 66-bit representation of Pi internally for
reduction.  It is not possible to use these instructions and maintain
accuracy without a prior accurate reduction in software as recommended
by Intel.

Fixes #6794
