Changes since v3:
- Converted into a standalone patch not to be squashed with the
preceding patch (1/2).
- Updated commit message.
- Tested that installed stripped binaries for powerpc64le and x86_64
remain identical before and after this patch.
Changes since v2:
- Moved the removal of unused macros to a previous patch
Changes since v1:
- Adapted after patch v1 19/31 (remove hidden_* uses) was dropped.
- Fixed unintended removal of cvt* symbols on alpha and s390x
(now tested with build-many-glibcs.py).

This patch refactors the *cvt functions implementation in a way that
makes it easier to re-use them for implementing the IEEE long double on
powerpc64le. By removing the macros that generate the function names
(APPEND combined with FUNC_PREFIX), the new code makes it easier to
define new function names, such as __qecvtieee128.
Tested that installed stripped binaries for powerpc64le and x86_64
remain identical before and after this patch. Also tested for
powerpc64le, x86_64, as well as with the following build-many-glibcs
targets: alpha-linux-gnu, mips-linux-gnu, powerpc-linux-gnu-soft,
s390x-linux-gnu, and sparc64-linux-gnu.
