Dan Amelang 4cd50965a1 Change _cairo_fixed_from_double to use the "magic number" technique
See long thread here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/cairo/2006-October/008285.html

This patch provides a 3x performance improvement (on x86) for the
conversion of floating-point to fixed-point values as measured by
the recent pattern_create_radial performance test:

image-rgba      pattern_create_radial-16     8.98 3.36% ->   2.97 1.03%:  3.38x speedup
██▍
image-rgb       pattern_create_radial-16     8.94 3.21% ->   2.97 0.18%:  3.36x speedup
██▍
 xlib-rgb       pattern_create_radial-16     9.55 3.17% ->   3.64 0.51%:  2.93x speedup
█▉
 xlib-rgba      pattern_create_radial-16     9.63 3.53% ->   3.69 0.66%:  2.91x speedup

/* This is the "magic number" approach to converting a double into fixed
* point as described here:
*
* http://www.stereopsis.com/sree/fpu2006.html (an overview)
* http://www.d6.com/users/checker/pdfs/gdmfp.pdf (in detail)
*
* The basic idea is to add a large enough number to the double that the
* literal floating point is moved up to the extent that it forces the
* double's value to be shifted down to the bottom of the mantissa (to make
* room for the large number being added in). Since the mantissa is, at a
* given moment in time, a fixed point integer itself, one can convert a
* float to various fixed point representations by moving around the point
* of a floating point number through arithmetic operations. This behavior
* is reliable on most modern platforms as it is mandated by the IEEE-754
* standard for floating point arithmetic.
*
* For our purposes, a "magic number" must be carefully selected that is
* both large enough to produce the desired point-shifting effect, and also
* has no lower bits in its representation that would interfere with our
* value at the bottom of the mantissa. The magic number is calculated as
* follows:
*
* (2 ^ (MANTISSA_SIZE - FRACTIONAL_SIZE)) * 1.5
*
* where in our case:
* - MANTISSA_SIZE for 64-bit doubles is 52
* - FRACTIONAL_SIZE for 16.16 fixed point is 16
*
* Although this approach provides a very large speedup of this function
* on a wide-array of systems, it does come with two caveats:
*
* 1) It uses banker's rounding as opposed to arithmetic rounding.
* 2) It doesn't function properly if the FPU is in single-precision
* mode.
