    Fix incorrect powf(3) result with x near 1 and |y| much larger than 1
    
    This adjusts the check to trigger overflow/underflow to a slightly lower
    value.
    
    Before: powf(9.999995e-01, -1.342177e+08) -> inf
    After:  powf(9.999995e-01, -1.342177e+08) -> 1.858724e+31
    
    (cherry picked from commit 93fc67896550548f91b307dbe3053f11db5d4a8a)
    
    Add test case for 93fc67896550 (incorrect powf(3) result)
    
    This adds the test case to contrib/netbsd-tests/lib/libm/t_pow.c, as it
    is currently the only place testing pow(3) and friends.
    
    (cherry picked from commit 51af03328755c9095e94d20858a8d10acfe412ae)
