Generalize the f64 support to support other sizes. Also provide interop
support for `float`, `_Float16`, and `__float128`.
Also lay some groundwork for non-standard floating-point types, though
we don't have any syntax to name them yet.
Don't convert to f64 until we know that's the type that we actually
want. Also reimplement the conversion from RealId to FloatId to perform
an exact conversion with a real check for overflow, rather than
performing an approximate conversion via the host `double` type.
Unfortunately, LLVM doesn't expose its integer mantissa and exponent to
APFloat conversion, so we convert the RealId back to a string for now.
The LLVM conversion also detects overflow only if the literal would
round to having an out-of-range exponent, not if the literal is outside
the range of values of the type as the Carbon design expects. It's not
clear to me which rule we actually want here, so for simplicitly I'm
using the LLVM rule for now.
In preparation for adding other floating-point types beyond f64.
Add missing builtins for float compound assignment, for building a
FloatType, and for converting a float literal to FloatType. Switch
`Core.Float` to being a class and add impls for the various
floating-point operators.

In preparation for `FloatValue` being used more generally, and not only
for literals.
