Prepare vfscanf to use __strtof128_internal

On powerpc64le, long double can currently take two formats: the same as
double (-mlong-double-64) or IBM Extended Precision (default with
-mlong-double-128 or explicitly with -mabi=ibmlongdouble).  The internal
implementation of scanf-like functions is aware of these possibilites
and, based on the format in use, properly calls __strtold_internal or
__strtod_internal, saving the return to a variable of type double or
long double.

When library support for TS 18661-3 was added to glibc, a new function,
__strtof128_internal, was added to enable reading of floating-point
values with IEEE binary128 format into the _Float128 type.  Now that
powerpc64le is getting support for its third long double format, and
taking into account that this format is the same as the format of
_Float128, this patch extends __vfscanf_internal and __vfwscanf_internal
to call __strtof128_internal or __wcstof128_internal when appropriate.
The result gets saved into a variable of _Float128 type.

Tested for powerpc64le.
