Some recent math optimizations removed some symbols from the static
build and due to the limited static build check, along with
--disable-shared being broken for some time [1], this issue has slipped
some releases.

Although the fix is straightforward, I added an extra framework to
enable static build for math libraries using the generic type
framework (which autogenerated the tests for all supported types using
the C template files). I have not enabled it for all tests due to the
required extra size constraint, this is done with a new define that
can be used with make check (build-math-static-tests).

As an experiment, I enabled static build for all autogenerated math
tests. This has uncovered some extra missing symbols on some ABIs, along
with some issues with implementation used on static for some ABIs.  On
x86_64/i686 it shows that the assembly optimizations for acos, log10,
log2, and ldbl-96 y0/y1 show some issues:

The powerpc64le also shows multiple issues with the static linking
(using gcc 13.1):

  FAIL: math/test-float128-exp10-static
  FAIL: math/test-float64x-exp10-static
  FAIL: math/test-ibm128-acos-static
  FAIL: math/test-ibm128-copysign-static

  FAIL: math/test-ibm128-fmod-static
  FAIL: math/test-ibm128-frexp-static
  FAIL: math/test-ibm128-modf-static
  [...]

I have not analyzed what is happening, but it might be due to the
'-mabi=ibmlongdouble' along with how libgcc.a was built (I saw some
issues on GCC bugzilla).

I also tested this patchset with build-math-static-tests=yes for all
ABIs, and there is not more build failures.
