[PATCH 04/11] x86/ELF: fix .tfloat output with hex input

The ELF psABI-s are quite clear here: On 32-bit the data type is 12
bytes long (with 2 bytes of trailing padding), while on 64-bit it is 16
bytes long (with 6 bytes of padding). Make hex_float() capable of
handling such padding.

Note that this brings the emitted data size of .dc.x / .dcb.x in line
also for non-ELF targets; so far they were different depending on input
format (dec vs hex).

Extend the existing x86 testcases.

There's an anomaly with how hex float values may be specified:
read.c:parse_one_float() treats the 0<alpha> prefix as optional, but
one can't uniformly omit it:

	.tfloat 0x:0123, :0123

is okay, but

	.tfloat :0123, :0123

gets read as

.tfloat: 0123, :0123

(i.e. a label instead of the directive).
