Fix wrong output of x87 registers due to truncation to double on amd64
When `info float` is used on an AMD64 system, GDB prints
floating-point values of x87 registers with raw contents like
0x361a867a8e0527397ce0 or 0xc4f988454a1ddd3cfdab wrongly.
This happens due to truncation to double, after which the former
becomes 0.0, and the latter becomes negative infinity. This is caused
by failed detection of x86-64 host, which results in setting
gdb_host_{float,double,long_double}_format to zeros.
This commit fixes this misdetection, and adds a test to make sure
future commits don't introduce a regression here.

Add checking of floatformats setup on x86_64 hosts.
* gdb.arch/i386-float.S (main): Load bigval and smallval.
(smallval, bigval): New labels/constants.
* gdb.arch/i386-float.exp: Use with_test_prefix and test "info
float" after loading bigval and smallval.
