exp10 is a function available in GNU libm. Looks like no other common
libm has it. This adds support for it to FFmpeg.
There are essentially 2 ways of handling the fallback:
1. Using pow(10, x)
2. Using exp2(M_LOG2_10 * x).
First one represents a Pareto improvement, with no speed or accuracy
regression anywhere, but speed improvement limited to GNU libm.
Second one represents a slight accuracy loss (relative error ~ 1e-13)
for non GNU libm. Speedup of > 2x is obtained on non GNU libm platforms,
~30% on GNU libm. These are "average case numbers", another benefit is
the lack of triggering of the well-known terrible worst case paths
through pow.
Based on reviews, second one chosen. Comment added accordingly.
