Is it necessary to return specifically fN::NAN? Rather than, say, the quiet NaN with 0 payload.

I had this for bitwise equality at some point, but I since removed that path. I'll clean this up.

Removed. I also moved the new struct to hex_float so it is usable for debug printing within libm.

To always print the exponent sign, you could use the + format flag (https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/fmt/index.html#sign0)

🤯 I don't think I ever knew about that option, thanks
This isn't very useful for constants since the trait constants are available, but does enable roundtripping via hex float syntax.

Update the
hf*functions to be able to parse infinities and NANs, then add a wrapper type that formats with the hex float syntax.For now this is only being used in
util, but in a followup I will somehow merge this into the existingHextrait so this is displayed from test output.
