Issue #7117 (backport py3k float repr) continued:
- add double endianness detection to configure script
- add configure-time check to see whether we can use inline
assembly to get and set x87 control word in configure script
- add functions to get and set x87 control word in Python/pymath.c
- add pyport.h logic to determine whether it's safe to use the
short float repr or not
